Yield Map Says It All

Precision Ag Shows It Can Work In Southeast

Yield Map Says It All

Barnes says yield monitors are a missed opportunity, and he is surprised that more producers aren't taking advantage of this technology. Although it requires putting the yield monitor on the combine and downloading data, the yield map is really where the rubber meets the road.

"That's the only way to see at the end of the year if what you did has worked," he says. "How else can you really verify what is working or is not working on your farm?

"With just a yield map, you can start to see areas of the field where you are losing money at the end of every year."

That is valuable information.
