Crop4Sight - Crop Forecasting

Understanding canopy development is crucial to good potato crop management. The rate of canopy expansion and persistence of full canopy are major factors in controlling the total biological yield, which is closely correlated to the solar radiation absorbed by the crop.

Crop4Sight provides benchmark canopy and biological yield curves that account for variety and date of emergence. These allow easy detection of deviations from good crop growth, giving users the opportunity to revise crop expectations in-season to manage crop value. Risk and reward analysis, using crop yield forecasts, quantifies the financial value returns of the crop weighed against operational requirements.
