Example
Fertilizer $ vs your flat rate
| Program | $/acre | 2,000 acres |
|---|---|---|
| Your flat rate | $68 | $136,000 |
| Varigro plan | $60 | $120,000 |
| Difference | $8/acre | $16,000 |
Example figures. Your estimate uses your fertilizer prices and rate rails.
Built for $4 corn economics
When fertilizer is expensive and corn is cheap, Varigro helps Midwest grain farmers put fertilizer and seed on acres that pay, using the files they already have. You can draft a map yourself. Many growers still review it with an agronomist.

How it works
Upload a boundary and soil tests you already have. No extra data hunt.
Choose the crop, grades, $/ton, and the min and max rates you will actually apply.
Compare your flat program to this plan in $/acre and field total, then review the map. See estimated fertilizer dollars vs your flat rate before you apply.
Download one shapefile ZIP, packed for Raven Slingshot or a USB file for John Deere, Ag Leader, Trimble, or a generic display.
Start with a boundary and soil tests. You do not need a yield monitor or a GIS workstation. Many growers still review the map with an agronomist before they apply.
Draw or upload a boundary, set your rails, and review a map you can explain zone by zone.
Create the plan from the files you already have. Many growers still review it with an agronomist.
Min and max rates stay inside your program. You approve the map before a file ships to the applicator.
Nutrient allocation
Cut wasted dollars on low-return acres and keep nutrients where productivity still pays. Decide field by field, not farm-average. When fertilizer prices move, reallocate instead of running last year's farm-wide rate.
Stop spending fertilizer dollars on ground that does not pay for a full rate this year.
Hold or raise rate on acres where extra nutrients still earn against $4 corn.
Every field is different. Customize rates from productivity and profitability, not a farm average.
