Precision Farming Technology
Make every pass count
Precision farming technology can help you work more accurately, reduce unnecessary overlaps, make better use of seed, fertiliser and crop protection products, and get more from every machine and operator.
Whether you are looking for straightforward guidance, fully integrated automatic steering, precision application control or greater visibility across a connected fleet, our specialist Precision Farming Team can help you find the right solution for your machinery and farming operation.
We support integrated and retrofit precision technology for New Holland, Case IH and a wide range of other agricultural machinery, with solutions for both single-brand and mixed fleets.
Guidance and automatic steering
From entry-level guidance through to fully integrated automatic steering, we can provide a solution matched to your machinery, applications and required level of accuracy.
Our systems can help you:
- Reduce skips and overlaps
- Improve pass-to-pass consistency
- Work accurately in poor visibility or after dark
- Reduce operator fatigue during long working days
- Maintain repeatable fieldwork from one season to the next
- Improve efficiency when drilling, cultivating, spreading, spraying and harvesting
Centimetre-level RTK correction is available for operations requiring highly repeatable accuracy, while other correction options provide a practical and cost-effective solution for less demanding applications.
Raven precision technology
Raven offers flexible precision farming technology for both guidance-ready and non-guidance-ready machinery.
Its range includes displays, receivers, steering systems, connectivity and application control technology, providing options for individual machines or complete fleets. Depending on the machine and application, systems can be fully integrated or retrofitted to existing equipment.
Our team can advise on the most suitable combination of display, receiver, steering system and correction service for your operation.
Precision technology for mixed fleets
You do not need to operate a New Holland or Case IH machine to benefit from our precision farming expertise.
We can provide retrofit guidance, automatic steering and connectivity solutions for a wide range of agricultural machinery, including many non-CNH brands. This allows customers with mixed fleets to introduce precision technology across different machines without being restricted to a single manufacturer.
Our specialists will assess each machine, its existing equipment and the work it is required to perform before recommending a compatible solution.
New Holland PLM Intelligence
New Holland PLM Intelligence brings guidance, machine control, automation and connectivity together to help improve productivity throughout the farming cycle.
New Holland precision solutions include IntelliSteer™ automatic guidance, IntelliView™ displays, implement guidance and technology for sharing coverage information and guidance lines between machines. Retrofit guidance kits are also available for selected New Holland and mixed-brand machinery.
Case IH precision technology
Case IH precision technology combines accurate guidance and machine automation with connected fleet and agronomic information.
AccuGuide™ automatic steering, compatible displays and correction services support applications ranging from cultivation and drilling to crop protection and harvesting.
Precision application and implement control
Precision farming goes beyond steering the tractor.
Application and implement control systems can help manage inputs more accurately by controlling rates, sections, individual nozzles and implement positioning. Depending on the equipment, this can help reduce overapplication, protect crops and improve consistency across the field.
Our team can advise on solutions for:
- Spraying and fertiliser application
- Variable-rate application
- Automatic section and nozzle control
- Drilling and planting
- Implement guidance and steering
- Yield monitoring and mapping
FieldOps™: connected machinery and data
FieldOps™ is available for New Holland and Case IH customers, bringing machine, field and job information together and providing access from the farm office, the cab or while on the move.
Depending on the machine and level of connectivity, New Holland FieldOps™ and Case IH FieldOps™ can provide:
- Real-time machine location and operating status
- Job progress and estimated completion times
- Machine performance and fuel-use information
- Field records, application maps and yield data
- Wireless transfer of field and job information
- Remote display viewing and operator support
- Connections with compatible farm management systems
FieldOps can also bring information from compatible machines across a mixed-brand fleet into one place, giving customers greater visibility of their operation.
Advice, installation and support
Choosing the equipment is only part of the process. Correct installation, set-up and operator training are essential if you are going to get the full value from the technology.
Our in-house Precision Farming Team provides:
- Advice on new and retrofit systems
- Installation and commissioning
- Display and machine set-up
- RTK and correction service support
- Operator training
- FieldOps and connectivity support
- Troubleshooting and ongoing technical assistance
