Export to calendarThe Data-Intensive Farm Management (DFIM) Tool uses precision agriculture technology to design on-farm precision experiments, enabling farmers to increase profits by making data-driven management decisions. As part of a Conservation Innovation Grant (CIG), DFIM was enhanced to allow the tool to store, manage, and process raw field-trial data; analyze results; and generate reports on site-specific input management which can be executed with a single click. The presentation will cover how use of difm.farm could dramatically improve various Adaptive Management and Precision Management scenarios in NRCS Conservation Practice Standards 329 Residue and Tillage Management- No Till, 340 Cover Crops, 345 Residue and Tillage Management-Reduced Till, and 590 Nutrient Management, generating far more useful data at far lower costs to crop producers and taxpayers.
