We've been using management evaluation to test our ideas and it
has just expanded from there. But now that we've seen evaluation
work in our farming operation, we think that it's something that
every producer should look at.
One of the changes we made was to cut back nitrogen application
from 140 pounds an acre to 120 pounds an acre. There was no yield
difference at all; so going through this process confirms with data
a gain in efficiency. That’'s a satisfying first step in EMS.

When
we can do something on our own land and within our own management
system, and see it work, we can apply it on the rest of our acres
with confidence. |
