While it’s not as bad as last year, Southern Rust is spreading across Iowa, and it can take over fields quickly. On top of that, this is also the point in the crop season where tar spot tends to impact corn fields as well. This makes effective crop scouting more important than ever. Dan Bjorklund, technical agronomist at Landus Cooperative, said it’s important to consider the total impact of every disease in your fields.
Bjorklund said SkyScout uses satellite and drone imagery to help farmers figure out what is going on in every acre of every field.
Bjorklund said SkyScout gives a very thorough analysis with each image it takes.
Bjorklund said SkyScout is also very user-friendly for farmers who might be hesitant to start using technology of this level.
