As we progress down the VRA/Greenseeker trail it becomes more the growers comfort level in new trends.Next year we are going with the Greenseeker on a NTB.I have heard and seen all the negative on soil types,moisture etc.When you have equipment that can go through 70" corn you open up the window of applicationso when you get that 3" rain in June/July you can go top up the crop since it will use it..When evreyone else is stopped thats when I like to start.As a former farmer I understand the cost and work to do the best possible for the grower.I like it when the grower jumps in for a round to get a first hand look at what is going on.It helps them with seeing the computers working.When we can go into $10000/ac crops and measure the improvement it helps us see the benifits as well.
