See the performance of chemical and fertilizer trials
Zone Economics now automatically identifies chemical and fertilizer trials and lets you analyze the yield & profit differences on those parts of the field. If you’re familiar with Zone’s Seed Variety Comparison think of it as something similar for applications!
We are calling this “Application Differences”. Each chemical or fertilizer application with different inputs on a field is automatically identified. There can be multiples on a field.
How to find these Application Differences
In your list of fields, an icon shows if the field has an Application Difference, and how many:
You can use filters to search for them too. Click on the icon to go directly to the analysis. You'll see the trial area on the map outlined in blue, and the application that's different is on the left:
For metrics and comparisons, covert to an Area of Interest
Click the the Save as Area of Interest button to get metrics for the trial area vs the rest of the field:
For example, compare how two different fungicides on a field performed. Or how a part of the field that had a fertilizer application compares to the rest that didn’t get that.
