New corn system from Bayer a game changer for farmers

The Preceon Smart Corn System from Bayer is a game changer for farmers.  The innovative system unlocks yield potential in the face of challenges.  The Preceon Smart Corn System combines three innovative elements within one system.

  • Short stature corn’s improved plant standability offers protection against the elements, like high winds, and provides great flexibility when it comes to applications of crop inputs like fungicides, insecticides, and nitrogen.
  • FieldView provides data-driven recommendations to maximize crop performance.
  • Support from Bayer and participating dealers and seedsmen gives lays the groundwork for farmers to maximize their return on investment.

The Preceon Smart Corn System will be tested on more than 30,000 acres in 2023 through the GroundBreakers Field Trials.  Feedback from the farmers participating in the trials will be used to enhance the system in the future.  Bayer expects to have a targeted commercial introduction in 2024.
