Bayer and John Deere connect FieldView to Operations Center in the USA.

Bayer and John Deere announced a feature that connects agronomic decisions to machine execution in the field in the United States. Starting this growing season, producers and consultants can wirelessly transfer prescriptions from FieldView to create Work Plans in the Operations Center. This eliminates the use of USB drives and manual steps that delay operations and increase the risk of errors.

Customers can now create prescriptions in FieldView and export them to the Operations Center at any time. The digital workflow connects agronomic data to machine execution. The process eliminates the need to download files, physically transport them to different areas, and manually configure monitors in the cab.

According to Jeremy Williams, leader of digital agriculture at Bayer Crop Science, the integration facilitates the use of innovation on every hectare. He states that producers and consultants are looking for simple and reliable ways to transform agronomic plans into action. The connection between FieldView and Operations Center reduces setup time and expands the use of solutions such as the Preceon Smart Corn System.

Chris Winkler, vice president of digital software and solutions at John Deere, states that customers are asking for more straightforward workflows and fewer steps in the cab. He highlights that wirelessly sending prescriptions and Work Plans to the Operations Center and connected Gen4 and G5 monitors simplifies operations preparation and integrates platforms and equipment.

In addition to configuration, producers and consultants can use the Operations Center to monitor and evaluate the quality of work during operation. After completion, bidirectional connectivity with FieldView allows for analysis of product performance and supports decisions for the next crop season.

The feature caters to producers participating in the Preceon Ground Breakers program in the United States. The companies anticipate a broad rollout in the country in the coming weeks. Availability in other global regions is expected later this year. FieldView experts will present the new feature during the Commodity Classic in San Antonio, from February 25-27.
