Determining the optimal seeding density is among the most important decisions a farmer can make this time of year. In every field, there are consistently low and high yielding areas. How farmers manage those zones can drastically impact profitability. In 2017, farmers using advanced seed scripting in Climate FieldView™ saw an average increase of 5 bu/ac compared to users who wrote their own scripts*. On this episode, Susan MacIsaac, Discovery Science Lead for The Climate Corporation, talks about how this tool can turn variability into an opportunity. *Assumptions: Comparing 281,000 ac in 4,179 fields More than 25% of field had script Products maturity ranges between 95-115 range Limiting comparisons to the same county; represents 79 counties 10 Midwest states Minimum of 3 Advanced & DIY Seed scripts in a county to be compared
