1. Variable Rate Application (VRA)
VRA enables farmers to apply inputs, such as fertilizer and pesticides, at variable rates across their fields. According to the USDA, VRA can reduce fertilizer costs by up to 25% and increase yields by up to 10%.
2. Yield Monitoring
Yield monitoring systems collect data on crop yield during harvest. This data can be used to identify areas of low productivity and make informed decisions about future crop management practices.
3. GPS Guidance
GPS guidance systems provide farmers with precise guidance during planting, spraying, and other field operations. Research by the University of California, Davis has shown that GPS guidance can reduce fuel costs by up to 15% and improve accuracy by up to 90%.
1. Soil Sampling and Analysis
Soil sampling and analysis provide valuable insights into soil fertility and health. We offer a range of soil testing services to help farmers make informed decisions about fertilizer and crop rotation practices.
2. Plant Tissue Analysis
Plant tissue analysis measures the nutrient content of plant tissues. This information can be used to identify nutrient deficiencies and optimize fertilization programs.
3. Pest and Disease Management
We provide expert advice and recommendations on pest and disease management strategies. Our team of agronomists can help farmers identify pests and diseases, determine their severity, and develop effective control plans.
1. Data Collection and Analysis
The foundation of precision farming is data. We collect data from a variety of sources, including yield monitors, GPS guidance systems, and soil sampling. This data is analyzed to identify areas of improvement and develop customized management plans.
2. Variable Rate Application
VRA is a key strategy for optimizing input applications. By applying inputs at variable rates, farmers can target areas of need and reduce waste.
3. GPS Guidance
GPS guidance ensures accurate and efficient field operations. It can be used for planting, spraying, and harvesting, saving farmers time and money.
4. Soil Health Management
Maintaining soil health is essential for long-term crop productivity. Soil sampling and analysis help farmers identify areas of concern and develop strategies to improve soil health.
