Jesup, IA | FWIW, I know TellusLabs backstopped their estimates against actual field harvest results this year. Plus they plan to layer in additional sensory info. Soil temps, sunlight intensity, solar radiation, nutrient availability, biological activity, plus the standards, temp and precip.
Again, time will tell if this all works. But that is the kind of effort there is out there to thwart govt reports with real time, play by play, pay per view style info.
At the smallest level, the arbitrary planting progress and crop condition reports are likely to be about as important as getting a week-old, printed market newsletter in the snail mail. | |
