Like an MRI, Connected Farm is Trimble’s integrated operations management solution that combines a variety of solutions to increase efficiency that helps users make better decisions for their farming business. How do you know what the soil profile of your field is if you don’t have the data? SIS is hardware and software that work together to create detailed and important soil information, helping you make informed decisions to impact your business. Knowing information such as the depth and thickness variance of a field is critical to understanding the impact of irrigation decisions. If you don’t have the data, are you guessing when making irrigation decisions?
Trimble’s PurePixel is an imagery product that helps producers save time by targeting specific locations for crop scouting instead of scouting an entire field. Resources, such as time and money, can be wasted on an entire field when only a portion requires attention. Another feature of PurePixel is that the tool is able to identify differences in crop health and maturity, including when the crop health is strong. When working with the tool, images can be compared – so farmers are able to observe differences between the same field at different times.
As every field is unique, precision agriculture tools allow you to better understand each field, better yet, areas of a field. Once you have the data, you can make improved management decisions to benefit your business. After all, if you can’t measure it, how can you manage it?
