Proving Grounds 2019

360 Yield Center

For over 25 years, Gregg Sauder and his teams have been re-inventing the tools and technology we use for planting, applying nutrients and managing residue. This year, 360 Yield Center is re-inventing the summer field day, too. JOIN US AUGUST 6, 7 OR 8 For a field day where you will actually be in the field. Riding next to combines as they harvest, planters as they plant, rippers as they rip and sprayers as they apply nitrogen and fungicides. You'll be... • In the field measuring leaf area indexes from different plant types, row spacings and populations. • In the field testing starter application methods. • In the field comparing the emergence between different tillage and planter systems. • In the field testing nirate levels and adjusting N application rates. • In the field measuring the impact of seed quality on planting date and ear count. -- Throughout the day, you will have your choice of a dozen different agronimic sessions and demonstrations. YOU SET YOUR SCHEDULE. You pick the topics most important to you. Gregg will be guiding field demonstrations using our 240-seat trams. The trams will pull alongside combines, rippers, planters and sprayers so you get an up-close look at new technology as Gregg describes the agronomic benefits behind each innovation. Plus, you'll have over a dozen options for food. We'll have food tents throughout the Proving Grounds - serving all day. Uncle Bob's ice cream at 9am? Sure. Steak sandwich for an afternoon snack? Sure. You'll head home with a head full of new ideas and a stomach full of great food. -- To ensure that everyone has a great experience, THERE ARE A LIMITED NUMBER OF SEATS.  So it is important to register to hold your spot in the field and on the trams. -- Held at our Proving Grounds farm, at the intersection of Interstate 155 and Townline Road, just south of Tremont, IL. (24293 Townline Road, Tremont, IL) -- Registration starts at 7:30am. Gregg will kick things off at 8:15am with opening comments. And we'll have you back on the road by 3:30pm that afternoon.
