Advantage Acre Field Planning
Springtime brings out several emotions. Whether it be the joy of spring, the stress of calving season, the anxiousness to get in the field, or even the stress of all the work that needs to be done – there’s no shortage of things on a farmer’s mind. One tool that our LG Seeds teams utilize to alleviate one level of that stress is Advantage Acre®.
Advantage Acre® is a great tool that allows us to create field-by-field plans during the less hectic times of the year, so you can be prepared when the busy season comes around. Discussing which products are going in what field, and why, not only makes certain that products are place for optimum performance, but also ensures that we have enough seed to get all the planned acres covered.
When you’re making decisions about which hybrids to plant, you’ve likely had a discussion with your STAR Partner about which products can go on certain areas of your farm. But, how do you remember all this when go-time comes around? Working with your LG Seeds STAR Partner, and Advantage Acre®, we can create field-by-field plans, and construct a planting book.
Planting books, like the pictures shown below, depict the plan you made and help you communicate that to your employees or teammates. In addition, it gives you a record book of any changes that may have occurred in your fields. Our in-depth Seed Plans also show you which fields were planned to be variable rate planted, so you can be sure your monitor is set correctly.
