There’s just a little something about real life experience and weighing the grain as it comes off the field that’s more accurate than satellites.

Can you drive equipment straighter than the Satellite guided GPS?
Farmers will have zero input on crop yields until STATSCAN calls in November for a December release. In 2024 or 2025 - there will be no farmer input for production estimates - only satellite derived NDVI.
I'd challenge check off boards to reverse Ag Can's Satellite decision for the farmers you represent; however, I've seen how effective the consensus representation is with the Export Sales Reporting bylaws that were passed. Doesn't anyone have real life experience at those tables?
If you give me your RM - I will tell you what the NDVI index said for canola yield at the end of July - but it won't be until tomorrow. My shift is over for today.
If you don't want to do it publicly - shoot me a PM.

Just saying what’s being observed in real life vs satellite imagery from JULY.
July is quite awhile ago especially with the late crop in our area.
I’m aware it’s a pretty big world and our little area is nothing in the grand scheme of things.
Just making a comment is all.
Have a great evening.

Don’t think any of us here doubt you Larry
You one of very very few that speaks the truth on many fronts and actually knows what’s going on
Maybe just farmer scepticism on this fancy satellite tech . But reality I think is showing with big crop areas falling short on combine yields in many areas
Some are great for sure , many just not there
And frustrating as hell as inputs continue to skyrocket

Can you check a 1/4?

Not a shot at Larry or anyone, but the utility of any tech is massively overstated in every industry and that will include satellite remote sensing.
For example; there are literally thousands of quants working algos in various equity markets using infinitely more data points than something NDVI would give and they cant even get the pricing right.
If anything, tech like NDVI will just bring more volatility to the markets. Just another estimate that will need revision 3 months later.

The truck drivers hauling the grain to the bin can give you a pretty dam good reading on the yield. Ones out this way don't look overly tired from haulin grain. Wish I could have some of that water overage from this spring for the canola and oats-sorghum mix.

Finished our first field of canola last night. This was my best crop all year. Came up even. Did have some hail damage, very minor I thought, it did show up on the yield monitor though. Swathing it I couldn’t go much over 4 mph, wouldn’t go through the hole any faster on my Challenger swather. Long story short I was pretty optimistic after swathing it. Weighed it all through the cart, low 40s was all it yielded. So yes looked like 60, yielded just over 40.
I am curious, I had a pretty good view out the swather window and I was way off. Regardless how clear a picture you get from a satellite how are you going to be any more correct than I was? I was sure it would go 50 bushels at least.Last edited by Hamloc; Sep 11, 2022, 08:25.
