Sentera’s Tassel Count analytics product will be available to all FieldAgent customers in March 2020.
Instead of forecasting yield using a small number of spot samples, Sentera tassel count analytics tool allows users to more precisely calculate yields using tassel population data gathered across the entire field.
Understanding tassel population can also help to more accurately time the application of certain crop protection products, says Sentera.

The product delivers tassel count density throughout a field so users can more easily forecast and refine their crop yields prior to harvest and make other management decisions.
Visualisation is available in FieldAgent and data layers can be exported via shapefile. Users can also convert their results into zone maps, which provide an average tassel count per acre per zone and total acreage per zone.
API connected partners have the option to integrate these new data layers directly into other digital platform products.
Tassel count analysis will be available starting March 2020 through Sentera’s FieldAgent Platform. The new analytics tool will be $ 1,200 for 1-year unlimited use and users can run the analysis on all or part of a field.
