Advanced Agrilytics has published a new study showing how its data-driven, predictive agronomic methodology helps growers boost productivity in good years and better withstand tough seasons.
The new article, “How Crop Resiliency Can Be Your Strongest Risk Management Tool,” highlights how growers using Advanced Agrilytics’ patented spatial analysis system are experiencing significantly lower loss cost ratios than USDA benchmarks.
“Resilience isn’t just a buzzword – it’s a measurable advantage,” said Jon Fridgen, Chief Science Officer at Advanced Agrilytics. “Our customers are seeing more stable yields, reduced input waste, and greater profitability because of how we manage risk before the season even begins.”
Fridgen’s comparative analysis shows Advanced Agrilytics-managed acres consistently maintain a flatter yield-loss trendline—even during years marked by heavy rain, drought, or other stressors. Using USDA Risk Management Agency (RMA) data alongside internal metrics, the research underscores that Advanced Agrilytics growers face reduced financial and agronomic risk.
This scatter plot illustrates the relationship between yield performance and crop insurance loss cost ratios—the higher the ratio, the greater the insurance payouts due to yield losses. The trendline for Advanced Agrilytics customers (represented by the green dots and the green trend line) shows a much flatter decline compared to the RMA/NASS-reported average (gray dots/trend line). This means that as weather variability or other risk factors increase, Advanced Agrilytics growers’ yields remain more stable.
