Agricultural machinery in Argentina becomes the “neurons” of agricultural operations as digital agriculture advances.
In particular, the tractor emerges as “a communication center” for the farm, starting from the information management of the implement you are towing.
“Tractors are no longer self-propelled drawbars; now they are self-propelled modems”the new function could be defined.
As the recipient of the generated data, the tractor is at the heart of the digitization that allows the farm office, the field and the fleet to be connected.
Decisions
This flow of information that is generated allows the development of agricultural work to be managed in real time.
For example, sensors can detect soil compaction and decide how deep to cultivate or how much fertilizer should be applied.
Through the variable dosage maps, the seeders manage the sowing dosage, controlling the quantity of seed applied per hectare and the fertilization of the lot.
For its part, checking and cutting sections allows for greater efficiency, ensuring that there is no overlap or omissions in any of these tasks.
The combines “map” the yields of the plots and provide essential information for planning future campaigns.
In turn, the sprayers, in addition to registering all the variables that affect the applications, add selective technologies.
Intelligent spraying, with new detection methods, saves 80% of herbicides and lower environmental impact.
Chemical control has become more specific and directed at the weeds that are detected during fallow.
