Replant Decision Calculator

Compare current stand revenue vs. replanting to determine economic advantage.

Inputs

Expected Yield (Current Stand) – bu/acre Expected Yield After Replant – bu/acre Crop Price ($/bu) Replant Cost ($/acre)

How It Works

Net Advantage = (Replant Yield − Current Yield) × Price − Replant Cost

Replant Decision FAQ

When should I consider replanting?

Replanting may be justified if yield potential loss exceeds the cost of replanting.

Does delayed planting reduce yield?

Yes. Yield potential often declines with later planting dates depending on region and crop.

Understanding Replant Decisions

Replant decisions should consider both agronomic and economic factors. Stand loss, uneven emergence, and delayed planting all influence yield potential. However, replanting involves additional seed, fuel, labor, and time costs. By comparing expected revenue from the current stand against projected revenue after replanting—minus replant costs—growers can make informed financial decisions.
