Precision Ag Seminar Series

Chad Lee, Extension Agronomist, University of Kentucky

The Kentucky Corn Growers Association is sponsoring a set of seminars on how to use precision ag data better. The first seminar in the series will be on how to develop better yield maps. Dr. Joe Luck, who grew up in Kentucky, is an Extension Specialist in Nebraska and will lead the seminar. Producers will learn how bad data can get into yield maps and ways to account for that bad data. The goal is to improve yield maps so that producers can make better-informed decisions. For more information about the seminar, please go to: http://www.kycorn.org/membership/precisionagseminars.htm
