Brian Sutton’s persistent search for a “better way of no-tilling” led him to launch AirScout, a precision company that invented Advanced Differential Vegetative Index (ADVI) imagery to improve nutrient strategies, develop better planting prescriptions and even guide harvest priorities. The Lowell, Ind., no-tiller demonstrates how to leverage advanced aerial imagery to get more bang for you buck with inputs.

Brownsburg, Ind., No-Till Innovator Mike Starkey joins Sutton with perspective on how he's using the technology to improve his no-till system. "It helps me spot anomalies that require action and identify 5 zones for my second sidedress application of nitrogen," Starkey says.

You'll Learn: How to use advanced aerial imagery to build planting prescriptions for corn, soybeans & cover crops, & improve in-season N management & scouting.
