Weed issues, insect thresholds, disease threats, herbicide resistance, nutrient deficiencies, crop staging for herbicide or fungicide applications… These and many other issues can only be properly assessed and managed with careful field scouting. Farmers may feel they require assistance with field scouting due to time constraints with managing other parts of their business, a lack of expertise in certain aspects of agronomy, or various other reasons which are specific to each farm. We can help bridge these gaps. Without the distractions of marketing, financing, and conducting the field operations to make a farm work, we do what we know best and that’s agronomy. After scouting fields we provide reports of our observations including recommendations on how to manage your fields to maximize profits and remain sustainable.
Our ‘cradle to grave’ agronomic package includes:
- Weekly field scouting from pre-seed to fungicide application
- Scout every 1-3 weeks afterwards, depending on needs
- Includes crop management recommendations
- Field record keeping using CropRecords.com software
- Soil testing and fertility planning
- Crop planning
- If desired, variable rate prescriptions for seeding and fertilizing
