| Variable
Rate Seeding Corn
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefit
of variable rate seeding corn on typical soil systems
in northern Ohio.
Objectives:
- assess variably applied corn seed population rates
versus traditional seeding rates for varying field
conditions.
- Use remote sensing and previous years yield data
for determining seeding rate application map.
- Measure effectiveness of variable rate equipment
application map versus "as applied" mapping.
- Educate producer on use of precision agriculture
technologies.
Research Designs - 1) Replicated plot design and 2)
whole field spatial analysis
