SciMax Variable Rate Planting
With higher seed and input cost, producers are looking for ways to increase productivity and increase profitability on every acre they farm. If you have a planter with variable rate population
capabilities but don't know where to get prescriptions, SciMax Solutions can help. We will work with you one on one to write prescriptions for your planter on an individual field basis.
Anyone can write prescription maps, but the value SciMax brings is different. We write population prescriptions based on soil types within a field, hybrid variety selection, tillage practices, and much more, on each field for the technology and equipment you are operating.
In 2008, SciMax Solutions wrote variable rate prescription maps for 5000 acres.
- An average increase on very marginal ground was 8 bushel/acre and 4 bushel/acre on similar soil types.
- Seed cost difference-not a savings tool, but a management tool. Putting the right seed and right population on the right soil.
In 2009, SciMax Solutions wrote variable rate prescription maps for 20,000 acres.
