Our @Spectare_VRTS program facilitates this "pooling" simulation. We also can embed surface drains and tile drains and watch how they directly affect the water flow and pooling! AI coding has definitely helped create these tools! @traviss22
Out here just casually pulling @JohnDeere ops center elevation data with API and running rain simulations to determine drainage and ditching paths. AI developed software will be groundbreaking to those who aren’t afraid to push boundaries. #farmtech

Attention Farmers/Growers: Assuming no major catastrophic events before or during harvest, late season biomass on cereals (in particular) can predict yields with 75-85% accuracy. Use this info wisely ! #jfg #deeperisbetter

Drainage and tile drain planning. Our SPECTARE software is getting exciting for many reasons. Our latest development in drain planning. #jfg #deeperisbetter

Our wind forecasting tool is good for planning the week of spraying. Colour scheme makes for easy reading. Its a global model, so you can leverage anywhere... even Antartica. #jfg #deeperisbetter

Your rainfall .... variable Your soils .... variable Your yields .... variable Your application rates .... blanket. Yes it can be simpler, but does it make sense?? #jfg #deeperisbetter

Here we have "As applied" fert data, grower challenging his VR prescription 👌 Our latest trial strip analyser tool will help growers evaluate their on-farm trials easily! Pull in "As applied" or yield data, build your strips, hit GO! #jfg #deeperisbetter

World leading in WA. 10cm increments, you'll notice "measured and predicted" in top left alongside the depth increment. Fantastic insight into the soil profile and where sands meet clays, moisture retention and salinity issues in a vertical plane #jfg #deeperisbetter

3. When NDVI data is calculated, it can ONLY be between 0 and 1. It is common to find early season 2-6 leaf cereals range from 0.05-0.2, and later season crops (Zadoks 45-65) can range between 0.1-0.95. Treat with caution as the range plays a big role in accuracy of VR N.

Our new EM unit reads: 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.8, 1.1 and 1.4m depth simultaneously. Using these measurements, we can calculate and predict where the changes in clay % occur. Early days, but our prediction layers have a very high r-squared (pic2). #jfg #deeperisbetter #worldfirst

First in the WORLD. Our newest EM can simultaneously detect soil changes at depths of 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.8, 1.1 and 1.4m. This adds resolution in soil profiles in 3d, that will greatly improve variable depth control prescriptions on deep ripping, in addition to greater understanding of duplex soils. #jfg #deeperisbetter

Reminder! Free and simple online tool. Do your own evaluation of VRT vs Blanket (including transport costs!). If you ever thought VRT wasnt worth the hassle, your recent budget meeting may have changed your mind. #jfg #deeperisbetter
Costs going up? What to do? Blanket Rate vs Variable Rate Check out our free online calculator "RateRater" to run your own business case for your adoption of VRT. Retweet for the unconverted. Any feedback welcome. tools.vrt-solutions.com/rate… #jfg #deeperisbetter

Don't listen if you don't want, but fertiliser is becoming too expensive to waste. Soil site selection --> Good sampling technique --> Good results --> Non-biased data based decisions Keep as much margin as possible #jfg #deeperisbetter

You cant pick good soil sites without good data. You cant take good samples without good methods. Leverage soil maps for better knowledge. This moves you towards better longer term decision making. Let the best methods have the most influence. #jfg #deeperisbetter

Very cool to see advances in soil testing, and in particular, in turnaround time. Running this for a couple of weeks. The future might be here! #jfg #deeperisbetter
