In 3 Steps:
How ROGO Improves Yield Potential on 12% of Acres
1. Identify Sampling Errors
See Sampling Errors For:




















When comparing various sampling methods, the images above show that hand probes, hydraulic probes, and augers all had several samples that differed significantly from the check trial. Some of ROGO’s samples had some small differences, but no major errors.
2. Count Moderate & Severe Errors
Across All Measurements, 25% of Hand Probe Samples Had Moderate or Severe Error





3. Improving Fertilizer Recommendations
- When writing fertilizer recs, 1/2 of the errors cause samples to be “over-fertilized,” and 1/2 cause samples to be “under-fertilized”
- Correcting this error improves the yield potential on the samples that would have been “under-fertilized,” or 1/2 of the samples with error
Conclusion:
Switching to ROGO from hand probes can improve yield potential on 12% of acres
