Managing for Profit
Is multi-hybrid planting in your future?
If variability in your fields is costing you bushels and dollars at harvest time, then multi-hybrid planting—placing specific hybrids at optimum zones in the field—may be part of the solution.
Keaton Krueger is an ag technology specialist with Winfield. He’s been working with Iowa-based SciMax Solutions this spring on a multi-hybrid planting project. They’ve used variable rate mapping from Winfield’s R7 Tool and a specially designed multi-hybrid planter purchased through the partnership to plant more than 1,000 acres of corn in north-central Iowa.
Krueger says multi-hybrid planting takes precision farming to a whole new level.
