This week’s featured video, published by FieldView (Digital Farming Software Platform), is a documentary that follows an Iowa corn & soybean farmer through one growing season.  Check out the 24-minute video that shares the highlights of a single crop year from planning to harvest and the type of digital technology used for modern precision agriculture.

Farmers across the country put their everything into raising a crop each year. Join us in following one farmer to document what it takes to bring a crop to harvest in 2021. Starting at planning season, we meet Iowa farmer Jerry Seuntjens on his corn and soybean operation. Like many farmers, Jerry is a solo operator, but stays in touch with his brother in Singapore using today’s digital farming tools. Always looking to improve upon last season, Jerry is setting out this year to trial and learn new things that can improve profitability and sustainability on his farm.  FieldView
