Field view vs. SWAT RECORDS app view 👀 When assessing seeding success and crop emergence, SWAT MAPS agronomists can rely on SWAT RECORDS to put the data right at their fingertips. The app’s zone-specific plant count feature makes it easy to record counts along a custom row length and automatically handles the calculations for you. It's a quick, accurate way to spot early-season issues and make informed management decisions moving forward. #SWATMAPS #SWATRECORDS

Did you know? #swatmaps provide th optimization of rates for soil applied herbicides. 2 examples we conducted using #avadex. VR Granular was applied from 8lbs on low OM hills to 12.8lbs in high OM depressions. Another application was VR on/off liquid with 62% reduction in product

This was backed by #swatcam where actual wild oat populations were mapped - and to no surprise - they are prevalent in wet high OM areas and almost non-existent on hills. Satellite imagery was deemed useless - it doesn’t know what is crop or weeds!

“One grower returned 20 bags of canola seed at the end of the year. That alone paid for half of SWAT, and that’s before you look at fertilizer savings or other crops.” Based in Marwayne, Alberta, @SixStrongAg has spent the past 15 years building a consulting business rooted in hands on agronomy and long-term relationships. Adopting SWAT MAPS allowed them to bring variable rate management into their consulting work in a way that felt practical and defensible. It also helped bridge the gap between what farmers were seeing in the field and what the data was actually saying. Read their full story👉 hubs.la/Q04c9r2p0 #AbAg #CdnAg #SWATMAPS #agronomy
