CFS Connections Magazine - Fall 2024

Regardless of last year’s drought and now this year’s excessive moisture, yields of CFS and Central Advantage GS patrons are again outperforming relative to local trendlines due to the compounding benefits of annual zone management, optimal fertilization, and utilizing the aggregation of data for input decisions in a stressed year. Key decisions on fertilizer application, weed control, and fungicide utilization are much clearer when historical data is consulted to help decide to invest. On the technology front, CFS invested in several emerging types of technology in the Summer of 2024. CFS has piloted See and Spray technology, invested in DJI Spray Drones for spraying and spreading, and trialed new biological products. CFS is driven to ensure any product or application recommendations remain rooted in local data with statistical significance. CFS can rapidly evaluate these new products for their consistency and reliability for return on investment. Expect more exciting news on these innovative technologies from the 2024 growing season. Lastly, CFS also continues to invest in its digital technology to allow for easy interaction with our customers.
