The art and science of variable rate seeding

Elizabeth Hawkins, Ohio State University and Maninder Singh, Michigan State University Extension –

When applied correctly, variable rate seeding (VRS) has potential to reduce crop input costs in areas of low productivity and increase yields in areas of high productivity. VRS provides the opportunity to optimize seed inputs spatially by matching plant populations with productivity zones within a field. This process is achieved by creating a prescription that can be executed by a variable rate capable planter.
