Crop plans / Wheat / Farm discipline simulator

Farm discipline simulator · pilot · Wheat

Nutrition decides about 1/4 of the yield.

Sowing, seed, water, weeds and pests decide the rest. Set a target, score your season across 10 levers, and see what is holding the yield back.

Wheat · What a good progressive farmer achieves

What yield are you aiming for?

Default is 60.0 maunds/acre. What a good progressive farmer achieves. Know your own variety does better or worse? Type your own number. Then score how the season is actually being run below. The simulator shows what that gets you, and what would close the gap.

Your biggest opportunities right now

Macronutrient Nutrition (N-P-K). Currently OK. Getting this to Best could add up to 4.5 maunds/acre (model estimate, not a trial result).

Irrigation Management. Currently OK. Getting this to Best could add up to 4.5 maunds/acre (model estimate, not a trial result).

Genetics & Seed Quality. Currently OK. Getting this to Best could add up to 3.9 maunds/acre (model estimate, not a trial result).

Macronutrient Nutrition (N-P-K)
Lowest of N%, P%, or K% delivered is 60-90% of recommended dose
Irrigation Management
CRI and post-anthesis both covered, but tillering or jointing irrigation missed/delayed
Seed Rate / Plant Population
Achieved stand 70-90% or 110-130% of target
Weed Management
Weed control applied but delayed or incomplete relative to the ~60-75 day critical weed-free period
Disease Management (rust and other foliar disease)
Moderately susceptible variety, or fungicide applied late/reactively after visible spread
Genetics & Seed Quality
Good-quality farmer-saved seed of a recommended variety, cleaned/graded, but not certified or treated
Sowing Time
Sown within ~2 weeks before/after the optimal window
Micronutrient Nutrition & Soil Fertility Baseline
Partial or inconsistent micronutrient application, or none applied where soil status is unconfirmed
Insect-Pest Management (mainly aphids)
Reactive control after visible infestation, incomplete coverage
Lodging & Harvest Risk
Minor/partial lodging in small patches, or slight harvest delay, with limited impact
