Description
Overview
The Trimble® Field-IQ™ crop input control system is designed to optimize planting and nutrient management operations. By integrating with Trimble displays, it offers precise control over various field applications, leading to increased productivity and reduced input costs.
Key Features
- Variable Rate Application Control: Apply inputs at variable rates based on field prescriptions, ensuring optimal use of seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides.
- Automatic Section Control: Automatically turn implement sections on or off to prevent overlap and reduce input waste.
- Boom Height Control: Maintain optimal boom height above the crop canopy to ensure uniform application and minimize drift.
- Seed Monitoring: Monitor real-time seeding information to detect issues early and prevent yield loss.
- Spinner Speed Control: Automatically control spinner speed for spreader applications to ensure even material distribution.
Benefits
- Increased Efficiency: Automated controls reduce manual intervention, allowing operators to cover more ground in less time.
- Cost Savings: Precise application reduces input waste, leading to significant cost savings over time.
- Improved Yield: Accurate seed placement and nutrient application promote healthier crop growth and higher yields.
Compatibility
The Field-IQ system is compatible with Trimble displays, including the TMX-2050™ and CFX-750™ models, ensuring seamless integration into existing equipment setups.
Applications
- Planting: Control seed population and spacing to optimize plant stands.
- Spraying: Manage pesticide and herbicide applications with precision to target specific areas and reduce chemical use.
- Spreading: Apply fertilizers and lime accurately to meet soil requirements and enhance fertility.
