Knowing the benchmark means knowing where to focus your efforts.
Validator shows yield, yield gap, and ROI potential in bushels and dollars, allowing growers to benchmark by percentile or bushels per acre. Management zones can be exported as KML or Shapefiles to share with agronomists and other advisors. This powerful tool is based on our proprietary 1.3B samples of yield, carefully collected across millions of acres and 26 states – as well as 20 years of detailed weather matched to the sample locations.
Data Visualizations show individual field performance against benchmarks.
