YOUR CROPS ARE
TALKING. ARE
YOU LISTENING?
Nitrogen needs can uctuate substantially within a eld. Using light reectance, OptRx looks directly to the
plant for critical information. By accurately measuring the health of the crop, you can apply nitrogen right
where it’s needed.
Implementing sensor technology into your nitrogen management program provides a proven method of
achieving gains in protability across all side-dressed and top-dressed acres – season after season – allowing
you to easily and effectively capture lost yield by responding to eld variability in real time.
• Capitalize on the variability that exists due to changing weather and soil conditions.
• Invest more nitrogen in regions that will respond favorably and apply less in regions that are nitrogen-rich.
• Achieve higher yields by responding to plant stress undetected by the human eye.
• Generate and implement a variable rate nitrogen prescription that adapts to ever year’s unique conditions, without
paying a per-acre fee.
• Compensate for variability of in-eld nitrogen caused by uctuating concentrations of nitrogen in manure, as well as
limitations associated with manure spreading equipment.
• See the potential of as much as a 10 bu/acre benet by ne-tuning your nitrogen program.
