Jacto takes to the 15th edition of the Bahia Farm Show equipment and tools that provide input savings, productivity and attention to the environment. In terms of technologies, the highlight is the new Uniport 3030 EletroVortex self-propelled sprayer. The technology combines air assistance at the spray bars with electrostatic charging of the droplets. The system allows the defensive to reach the lower parts of the crops, improving deposition on both the upper and lower sides of the leaves, contributing to a superior quality of application, reducing volumes, minimizing waste and increasing environmental protection. Among its main benefits are: greater operational performance, potential to reduce the number of applications during the harvest cycle and increase productivity.

Field research carried out by the company showed positive results from the EletroVortex technology, with the potential to reduce applications and increases in crop productivity, especially in soybeans and cotton by up to 5% and 10%, respectively.

Another big new feature is larger spray bars for Uniport 4530 and Uniport 2530 equipment. The two models of self-propelled sprayers have larger boom versions, which provide superior operational performance and reduced losses due to crushing. In the Uniport 4530, the 42-meter hybrid spray boom concept was developed in steel and carbon fiber, enabling up to 12,5% ​​greater operational efficiency. For the Uniport 2530 model, also self-propelled, the new 36 meter boom option provides an increase in operational performance of up to 15%

In fertilization, the highlight is the new 12-section automatic control, a differential available for the Uniport 5030 NPK self-propelled fertilizer machine and the Tellus 10.000 NPK traction fertilizer machine. The tool allows the segmentation of the application range into up to 12 sections, controlled automatically. It is a system that brings a reduction in fertilizer costs to the fertilization operation, which can reach 15%, representing savings for the farmer and greater environmental protection.  

in the segment of Portable equipment, Jacto presents at the event the backpack sprayer and doser with the possibility of connecting via Bluetooth and being controlled via a cell phone. The Jacto DJB-20s expands the company's offer in battery-powered knapsack sprayers and dosers.

Solutions for Precision Agriculture 

To control operations, Jacto presents the Otmis technological package for Precision Agriculture. Featured for the Omni 700, which in addition to navigation functions, features an Agis Operations Repeater function. The system allows you to record and repeat the execution of boom height, work speed, direction and spray parameters operations.

Another important tool in the line is the Otmis Maps Telemetry, a web-based management system that allows you to view maps with various information, streamlining the decision-making process.

These resources, associated with the equipment, provide control over spraying and operations management, with quality gains and significant resource savings for the producer.

Options for purchasing machinery and equipment 

A new feature presented during the event are financial solutions so that producers can have options to acquire the main technologies brought to the event: Jacto's own Financing Line, available for the entire product line, with a rate of 7,5% per year. year, term of 60 months and possibility of semi-annual payments. Another option is the National Jacto Consortium, with a quota covered for the entire Uniport line, based on a down payment of 50% of the value of the asset.

For purchases of Uniport products made in these two modalities, there will be an extended warranty for 18 months or 1800 hours. The campaign will be available until June 15th or, specifically for the consortium, until the quotas end.
