WC24 » What Did the Results Tell Us? [Full Session]

Hundreds of plots were conducted by agronomists at Precision Planting in 2023. A farmer asked Jason Webster, lead commercial agronomist, “If you could go back in time, what would you have done differently at the PTI Farm for the 2023 growing season?” Have your pen and paper ready for this one as you think about what to implement for the 2024 season.

What would I do differently to start over? I would abandon the disc coulters and move on to the chisel-shaped ones. They work fine without groove closure devices. 😁

In your video showing the difference in the closing systems furrow force has the furrow jet as well so you’re not showing apples to apples. I believe my furrow jet plus spiked wheels do just as good of job as your furrow force for a whole lot less money
