The Genomes to Fields Initiative (G2F) studies how genetic variation, environmental factors and management decisions interact to influence crop yields across farms, environments and growing seasons. Understanding these interactions with various corn hybrids informs effective management strategies and helps to identify suitable hybrid choices for specific conditions. Identifying the factors that affect corn yields in certain areas is critical for guiding both management decisions and hybrid selection for specific environments. The initiative involves research partnerships across 22 states. The project uses unique data collection methods, including multispectral cameras, thermal imaging and high-resolution satellite data. Nebraska’s involvement in G2F helps ensure that as new tools emerge to predict crop performance under changing weather conditions, farmers will have more reliable guidelines for the state’s farmers in the future.
