At Luckey Farmers, we offer services specifically geared towards preparing to record planting, as-applied and harvest data. We check your GPS system, upgrade the firmware in the cab monitor, make sure the data storage system is ready, and ensure we go the extra mile in a predetermined checklist. Growers are hesitant to spend money on preparing their digital harvest, but once we discuss the potential benefits of having a solid layer of yield data available, it soon makes the preparation costs pale in comparison. After the equipment has been prepared for harvest, operators need to be made aware of the do’s and don’ts during harvest with respect to things like re-calibrating in the field, leaving the monitor recording between fields, and entering field and crop names correctly.
