PRECISION SEEDING AND FERTILIZING WITH VARIABLE RATE AND SECTION CONTROL

Case IH AFS section and rate control lets you put seed, fertilizer and other inputs where you want them and ONLY where you want them. Reduced overlaps and more precise placement allow you to save on inputs, improve agronomic performance and lower overall costs.

VARIABLE RATE CONTROL

Variable rate application is usually based on pre-defined, precise location or soil quality of the area. Technologies such as maps, sensors, artificial intelligence (AI), drones and satellite data are used to determine these areas. Thus, for example, more seeds are planted in places where water and nutrients are higher. It is commonly used not only for seeding but also for weed control and fertilisation.


SECTION CONTROL

Section Control is a GNSS-based technology that automatically turns implement sections on and off to reduce overlap in previously applied or unwanted areas (e.g. waterways and headlands). This does not only reduce operator stress and improve your efficiency but also saves on input costs and minimises nutrient competition between the plants, which results in higher yields.

COMBINED BENEFITS

  • Savings in inputs such as seeds, fertiliser and pesticides without over-planting
  • Potential yield increase and improved crop quality due to a site-specific and balanced application of seed and fertilizer
  • Environmental protection by avoiding over-fertilisation
  • Relief for the driver as the arable land is automatically supplied with the optimum application rate


COMPATIBILITY

Section and Rate Control are compatible with many ISOBUS implements in combination with our AccuGuide (factory equipped Case IH machines or as retrofit) and aftermarket XCN-750, XCN-1050 and XCN-2050 guidance solutions.
