The Rural Voice, 1998-02, Page 33a situation with a high value crop, (2)
inputs are costly, and (3) yield
monitors are part of the system, then
the fit can be extremely profitable.
But if you're working with crops that
don't have yield monitors, with
relatively chcap inputs that don't
vary a lot, you will not be able to pay
for much technology and you may
need to give it a few years to become
Tess expensive.
often become frustrated by having
to say "There is no available data"
or "I don't know" over and over
again, while I'm trying to gain a
grower's confidence and convince
him that he should pay for my
knowledge. In reality, I fully expect
to say "I don't know" a lot. And I
won't be the only one who doesn't
have the answer because there just
isn't one.
As yield monitors become
available for many of our major
crops, we'll be able to develop more
answers than we have ever had, but it
will take time. For now, we're in a
transitional phase in many instances.
