An agronomy leader with Beck’s says farmers could benefit from making in-season decisions rather than a “post-mortem” approach.
Jim Schwartz is the director of agronomy and practical farm research.
“When we think about making decisions we’ve been in what I consider post mortem agriculture where we get to the end of the year and we look at the decisions we made for fertility, for fungicide applications and we look at yield maps and say this decision worked and that decision didn’t work so let’s apply that to next year,” he says.
