There are plenty of tools at a grower’s disposal, and Farm Journal’s wheat agronomist uses his handheld GreenSeeker on the farm.

The tool is used to help user fertilizer inputs more efficiently, especially nitrogen. The only big difference between handheld GreenSeekers and the sensors that fit on sprayers is portability.

Watch Needham demonstrate the use and explain the importance of using handheld GreenSeekers on AgDay above. Watch Farm Journal College TV every Friday on AgDay.
