Intelinair and Yara North America have announced a collaboration to bring together Adapt-N with Intelinair’s AGMRI, to support ag retailers, crop consultants and farmers in optimizing nitrogen use efficiency in their corn crops.
Intelinair stated through this collaboration nitrogen insights will be automatically generated throughout the growing season and customized to management zones within each field, with farmers able to adjust if needed to fit their budget, forecast and management approach.
“Through AGMRI’s integration with the John Deere Operations Center, this variable rate information can be sent to the machine to precisely apply the right amount of nitrogen in precisely the right place to optimize the yield potential of each corn plant, ensuring an optimized nitrogen use efficiency and a more sustainably grown crop,” according to a news release.
According to Bret Shaw, digital sales and commercialization development manager, Yara North America, the integration fundamentally changes the way that nitrogen modeling is applied to the corn cropping system. “The value this brings to the market will be immediately evident by allowing farmers to adjust their nitrogen needs based on the most accurate and timely data possible.”
This integration is an additional feature within Intelinair’s AGMRI product and the option to use Adapt-N and AGMRI independently of each other will remain available to customers.
