ROSL Services
Ranfurly Orchard Services provides a number of contract services to orchards in the Western Bay of Plenty.
Canopy Spraying – Our core business
We provide the full range of services including accurate application of
- bud break enhancers
- insecticides and fungicides
- foliar fertilizers and growth promotants
- fruit wash to remove water stain
- post harvest leaf dessicant to aid leaf fall in winter
- bird reppellant to reduce bird damage to young growth in Spring
A key to the success of this service is our attention to detail and our recognition of our responsibilities to our clients, our community and our environment.
We continue to invest in leading edge spray technology that maximizes the performance of the products being applied while minimizing the effects on everything else other than the target plant.
In recognizing the risks associated with chemical spraying, we ensure our staff is properly trained in chemical handling and we require that, at all times, they are adequately protected from the dangers of contamination. Refer to our Health and Safety Policy.
For the 2010/2011 season we will have 8 spray units servicing the district, each with an identical set up so that we are able to back up at short notice in the event of a breakdown.
