🌾 Dry Matter Mapping

Understand Your Crop’s Effective Production

Dry matter (Materia Seca) is the final, effective output of your production system, measured in kilograms per hectare (kg/Ha). It provides a precise, quantifiable indicator of crop performance, allowing farmers and agronomists to evaluate the true productivity of a field beyond just visual assessments.

📏 What Does the Map Show?

Our Dry Matter Maps display productivity in clearly defined zones based on the amount of harvested or dry biomass found.
Each zone reflects a range from 0 up to X kg/Ha, depending on the specific crop and growth conditions.

  • 🧮 Total Lot Production is automatically calculated by summing all mapped zones.
  • 🟩 Maps are built over basic minimum spatial units of 100 m² (square meters), allowing for high-resolution analysis.
  • 🧭 Data can be tracked over time to analyze seasonal and historical yield performance.

🌱 Compatible Crops

Dry matter mapping is available for a wide range of crops, including:

  • 🌽 Maize (Corn)
  • 🌿 Alfalfa
  • 🌾 Wheat (Trigo)
  • 🌱 Soybeans (Soja)
  • 🌻 Sunflower (Girasol)
  • 🌰 Peas (Arveja)
  • 🌿 Oats (Avena)
  • 🌿 Ryegrass
  • 🌿 Sorghum (Sorgo Granífero)
  • 🧄 Garlic (Ajo)
  • 🌿 Camelina

📊 How Is It Measured?

Dry matter is determined through standardized diagnostic procedures using satellite imageryfield sampling, or spectral reflectance models, depending on the crop and stage.

  • Measured in kg/Ha across the lot
  • Calculations consider localized soil, moisture, and fertility conditions
  • Supports decision-making for harvest, grazing, or cutting

🔍 Why Is Dry Matter Important?

✅ Evaluate effective productivity
✅ Plan for forage supply, silage, or grain harvest
✅ Identify underperforming zones
✅ Optimize fertilization or irrigation practices
✅ Integrate with nutrient and terrain data for full-field analysis

📂 Available Formats

  • Maps available in PDF, PNG, and GIS-compatible formats
  • Integration possible with variable-rate systems and management software
