"The biggest benefit is getting the field drained and we can get in there in a timely fashion and get things planted."

"The field is now far more efficient to farm and the yield increased tremendously."

"The landforming has probably made me more money on that ground than anything I have ever done."

Stan Holsapple
Holsapple Farms, USA

"I was impressed by just how little work had to be done, have we'd been doing it the traditional way of moving dirt in the early 90s, we would have done 4x the work."

Michael Gray
Farmer, Wakefield Partners, Arkansas, USA

"We've had about 12" of rain and water has been flowing through that paddock we OptiSurfaced, but it is draining brilliantly. You can't believe how much better it is!"

"We harvested about 20 per cent more crop from the OptiSurfaced area following a flood in March.  We are confident the investment is already paying off."

Wade Bidstrup
Farmer, Aloe Farming Co., Queensland, Australia

"Instead of doing dirt work by laser and having to cut as much as 500 cu.yd/ac, on the same farm, we were lowering it to as little as 125 cu.yd/ac. Doing it at a much lower cost and with a lot less destruction to the top soil."

Bobby Hoard
Farmer, Hoard Farms, Arkansas, USA

"We're impressed by the comprehensive way you go about the design, looking at all the options and the most cost effective way of getting the drainage right."

"We are very happy with your service and the outcomes have been excellent."

Tristan Nitschke
Farmer, Queensland, Australia

"We don't have to wait two or three years for the topsoil to recover and reap the benefits of land grading. With OptiSurace, the year after, all the water drains out nicely and with minimized earthworks, topsoil disturbance is reduced."

Billy Beaudry
Farmer, Beaudry Farms, Quebec, Canada

"OptiSurface works great! It's probably the most improvement you can do to your farm for the least amount of money."

"Ponding is a huge issue here. This farm has probably lost a third of its yield for the last 30 years to ponding. After we're done with the project (earthworks), we had a large rain event and we got out there to see the ponding gone is real striking!"

"This experiment has been a spectacular success since I managed to squeeze out 200 bushels per acre off of this farm which many people previously consider not suitable for corn."

"The improvement in productivity is also amazing! It's absolutely remarkable how much quicker we can plant, spray and harvest this field with so many of the ditches removed."

Craig Craft
Farmer, Craft Farms, North Carolina, USA

"I would give OptiSurface a 10 out of 10 for customer service and product quality. You guys are great!"

"Here is a video that we took of a field that we landformed. We were able to landform this field, plant some cover crop on it and then we received a 3 inch rain. This is a video of the field as it’s draining. It couldn’t have worked out any better- all the water flowed down the furrows (tire tracks), into the small ditch on the end of the field rows, then perpendicular to the rows at the end of the field and right into the tile inlet. In a matter of a couple hours all of the surface water was drained off the field!"

David Van Drunen
Farmer, Van Drunen Farms, Illinois, USA

"After significant rainfall, I flew up in my plane and got some pictures. As far as you can see, ponds are gleaming in everybody's field. I looked into my field which I have just completed and there wasn't one pond standing on that field."

"Everything I have OptiSurfaced, I haven't had to replant anything (due to drown outs). That's pretty cool! I've also got rid of dozens of surface drains (inlet pipes)"

Jeff Kelly
Farmer, Frymire Farms, Illinois, United States

"What most impressed me is we can take the idea of 'Infinitely Variable Grade' to country that otherwise wouldn't be considered drainable."

"Our field was as bad and difficult drainage situation that I think you'd had a go at. If we can nail this, then there's a lot more country we could look at."

"At the end of the day, the most critical thing for us is to have good quality soil in the (tree) mounds. And because we didn't have to move too much soil and rarely had to go to the subsoil with poor quality soil, I think we've done that."

Matthew Durack
Owner, Salt Spray Farms, New South Wales, Australia

"Going from 2 tons/ha with 850mm of rain in 5 months to 5-6tons/ha with 800mm of rain in 5 months, makes landforming plus your designs, creating outstanding work. In afrikaans we say it’s “uitstekende werk” (excellent work)!"

Gerhard Botha
Farmer, Botha Familie Trust, South Africa

"After the first rain, I saw the water went where we wanted it to and I was absolutely convinced that OptiSurface was the right program for us."

Robbie Commens
Farm Manager, Salt Spray Farms, New South Wales, Australia

"I can only say, so far, everything is Perfect."                                               Recommendation Rating: 10/10

Roger Stonner
Farmer, Missouri, USA

"That field is finally coming in with some winter wheat and it looks terrific! We're so pleased with the way it came out."

"No more ponding, damping off, salt accumulation. The water goes in as evenly as it goes on. This is a completely different field!"

Mark Dunn
Farmer, Railroad Valley Farms, Nevada, United States

"OptiSurface Designer is very simple to use and easy to understand how to make a plan."

Herman Kruger
Farmer, C & H Kruger Boerdery, South Africa

"I was impressed by how much less soil we were moving and all round flexibility of the program, all the analysis tools and the flexibility of what designs you can do."

"OptiSurface allows us to give farmers a complete solution and being able to analyze that solution before implementing it."

"With OptiSurface, we are moving so much less soil and we have much better suited and complete designs without cutting all the topsoil."

"Were very happy with OptiSurface services. We always get feedback quickly. New features, the ones that are possible, usually gets built in fairly quickly to the new updates."

Stephan Geldenhuys
AgriDrainage, South Africa

"Continuously variable grade change is a breakthrough technology."

"All the analytic tools (like Drainage Analysis) helps you refine the design which is very useful."

"The biggest benefit is significantly reduced cuts."

Alasdair Harris
Agricultural Engineer, South Africa

"Instead of spending $1000/ha ($400/ac) on Laser Leveling, with OptiSurface we're getting in the order of about $200/ha ($80/ac). Not only you save money on shifting dirt, you're also avoiding the reduced productivity from scalping topsoil."

Tim Neale
Consultant, PrecisionAgriculture.com.au, Australia

"I was looking for a cheaper way to get water management earthworks done so more farmers can afford it, and OptiSurface was the answer."

Bentley Devazier
Contractor, Devazier Excavating, Arkansas, USA

"You can potentially spend a couple of days designing a complex design with Multiplane ending at about 400 - 500 m3/ha.  But designing the same field with OptiSurface, you can spend a maximum of 2 hrs and get the earthworks down to under 200 m3/ha."

Larry Lawrence
Contractor, Burdekin Laser Services, Queensland, Australia

"Before OptiSurface: We had a tough time relaying and communicating plans and estimating dirt moving for our customers."

Garnet Peters
General Manager, Precision Land Solutions, Manitoba, Canada

"OptiSurface has definitely brought customers that may have not moved any dirt before because of the low yardage. "

"I'm impressed with the least amount of (earthworks cubic) yardage we've moved from these high yardage fields."

Lawrence Fielder
Contractor, Turman Construction, Arkansas, USA

“Any of you guys out there that question this, that think it is a hoax, that thinks it is something that it is not; give us a call we would be glad to explain it to you. From a dealer to dealer stand point, its unbelievable what it will do to your revenue.”

Chris East
Precision Ag Partners, Precision Ag. Dealer, USA

“We have increased both the sales of equipment and value added services.  Our agronomists are doing more plans than before and also we're selling more credits, so it's very nice business for us.”
