Aerial Topdressing - Canterbury & South Island 

Whether you're farming the rolling foothills, the high country, or flat irrigated land, we have the experience and aircraft capability to complete the job safely and accurately. Our pilots have spent decades working Canterbury's varied landscapes - from tight hill-country runs to wide open plain paddocks - and that local knowledge makes a measurable difference. 

​

One day we may be topdressing steep hill country; the next, managing variable rate applications on irrigated Canterbury Plains farmland. 

For high-analysis fertilisers, we use Transland spreaders - well-regarded in agricultural aviation for producing consistent, accurate spreading patterns across a range of products and application rates. 

​

All loaders and the telehandler are fitted with electronic scales, so tonnages and weights are accurately recorded and available for download. This supports accurate client reporting and farm records. 

Spreadmark is New Zealand's national quality assurance programme for aerial spreading. As a certified operator, Skyfarmers meets strict standards for application accuracy, operator competency, environmental care, and record-keeping. Your proof of placement records are generated automatically through our Tabula GPS mapping system on every job.
