Tools for improving depth control, singulation, seed environment and yield.

How we can help?

Spacing? Depth? Speed? Residue? Seedbed? Which problem is costing you the most during planting? Look here to uncover the cost of poor planter performance . . . and simple solutions to fix them.

Populations. Spacing. Placement.

Higher populations mean that the placement of every plant - every seed - is critical. Corn plants closer than 4" sense high population and react to the high stress environment. But with a little effort, today's planters can achieve spacing accuracy of 97% or more. Find out how.

Depth. Compaction. Residue.

Uniform emergence is the most important event in a cornfield's year. Plants that do not emerge within 48 hours after their neighbors turn into "weeds". Creating a good, clean seed V, getting seeds to the bottom of the trench and eliminating compaction can get plants off to a uniform start.

Measure. Monitor. Control.

Find and Fix planter problems before they cost you a dime. New monitoring and sensing systems can identify expensive issues you can't detect in the shop. And with new control systems, you can set and forget critical functions like downforce adjustments, VR populations and Row Control.

Education

Precision Planting Conferences

We try to pack a semester’s worth of agronomy class into a six hour day. But this is no academic exercise. The things we talk about are real-world solutions to issues that are limiting our yields. We focus on the things that ensure that we set the maximum potential yield. That means we focus on the planter. From hitch pin to closing wheels. Anything that helps get seed at the right depth, the right spacing and in the right seed trench environments.

 

2012 Winter Conference - January 10, 11, 12 and 13

Our next Conference is our Winter Conference scheduled for January 10, 11, 12 and 13, 2012. We will be rolling out a new, unique format for this year's conference that will dive in-depth into planter management and maintence that will get you ready for a successful spring. We'll take what you saw and expereienced this growing see and help you create a plan for improving performance and building confidence as you prepare to go to the field this spring. Pick from one of four days to join us.

And if you haven't yet, become a fan of our Facebook page to for updates leading up to the event.

2011 Summer Corn Conference July 25, 26, 27, 28 and 29

Our Summer Corn Conference was held July 25, 26, 27, 28 and 29, 2011. While we were not able to harvest corn at this year's event as we had hoped, attendees still walked away from some of our most in-depth field sessions we have ever done.
