Overlap while seeding is a common frustration for farmers, especially on irregular fields or on fields with obstacles like potholes, powerline right-of-way, rock piles and more. And as machinery gets bigger, overlap becomes a bigger issue for growers. Over the last 14 years, automated sectional control technologies have been introduced to farmers in Western Canada to help reduce overlap. New research from the Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute found that overlap can be reduced with hefty savings in crop inputs and even greenhouse gas emissions.

The world’s population is growing – and thus, so does cereal production need to grow. Estimates indicate an additional one billion metric tonnes of cereals per year will be needed to feed the world’s population by 2050. In order to achieve such production, the potential yield of crops must be increased, and/or the gap between potential production and actual production must narrow. Recent research was conducted to assess yield gaps in the 10 major wheat-growing regions of the world. Now, the strategies to narrow that gap can begin.
