  4. Update: Precision University 2022

    Author(s): Amanda Douridas, CCA , Author(s): Elizabeth Hawkins

    We were excited to bring Precision University back to an in-person event in 2022. However, due to stress in the supply chain and other unforeseen circumstances, we are not able to present the January 19 in-person portion of Precision University to the caliber that our clientele would expect. Therefore, we have cancelled that day and hope to resume our in-person event in 2023. Webinars will continue on January 5 and 12 as scheduled.

    Just as ag technology is always updating, so to is Precision University. This year our focus is Using Ag Technology to Manage 2022 Challenges​. Based on feedback from last year, it will be delivered in 2 webinars and a half-day, in-person event.

    The January 5 webinar will focus on adapting to supply chain shortages. A panel of industry representatives will share what they are seeing and how to work around what you might not have.

    Yield monitor calibration for fall harvest

    Author(s): John Fulton , Author(s): Elizabeth Hawkins

    Harvest has not yet started here in Ohio, but it is good to remember to make sure your yield monitor is setup and calibrated properly. Geo-referenced yield data (i.e. yield maps) are being used to provide precision agriculture insights and recommendations at the field level. Yield maps not only help growers understand end-of-year performance within fields, but also can be used to characterize in-field variation. Information about this variation is often used by service providers to deliver prescriptions, recommendations, or other information back to the farmer.
