Gear up now for 2016 crops

On Nov. 1, we switched gears to start planning for the 2016 crop year. Users may see a few changes in the R7® Tool when looking at fields that were previously mapped.
Here’s what to expect now in the R7® Tool:
- All fields are transferred to the 2016 season and enrollments are set to a “non-enrolled” status.
- Purchased in-season imagery (ISI) from the 2015 season will be transferred to the 2016 season and available in the Archive Maps section as NDVIs.
- Previously created prescriptions (like the on pictured above) and profitability maps can be viewed by switching back to the 2015 season.
- All existing yield maps will be transferred to the 2016 season and available in the yield maps section.
- 2015 Answer Plot® data will be available in the R7® Tool once harvested and integrated into the tool. 2014 Answer Plot® data can be viewed by selecting the 2014/2015 season in the Top 10 window.
It’s also time to upload yield data into the R7® Tool. The process is quick, easy and user-friendly. Once yield data is uploaded, use the profitability map and yield-analyzing tools to show how managing the variability in fields can help increase a farmer’s profit.
If you have questions regarding the seasonal change in the R7® Tool, please contact your ag technology specialist.
Planning is underway for 2016, and now is the time to tap into the latest technology to jumpstart the process.
