Pooled 2020 Hybrid Analysis

We’ve created a report that anonymously summarizes the “pooled” 2020 yield results by soil type, by soil fertility, and by hybrid for all of my clients that had the necessary GPS-based harvest, soil sampling, and planting data.  

This year I’ve simplified the report and suggested several possible conclusions in a slide show (PDF) that you can view or print here:

This report represents an on-farm trial of over 102,000 acres that met Precision Land Service’s data quality requirements.  The data in this report represents an unbiased analysis of actual yield data collected anonymously from my clients using innovative farming practices on soil types from Southern and Central Iowa.  As you consider your 2021 seed and targeted placement plan, this report can help you maximize yields by planting targeted hybrids that thrive on specific soil types or specific soil fertility environments.  Using this information in conjunction with your site-specific yield analysis mapbook can help you benchmark your operation against the data presented in this report…with the goal of potentially implementing new practices like variable rate planting, Adapt-N variable rate nitrogen, or becoming more aggressive with your fertilizer strategy to maximize your operation’s future yields and profit. 

Please call me if you have any questions about our yield analysis or if you’d like to discuss building a customized planting or nitrogen prescription for 2021.         

I wish you great success in 2021!
