Jacto brings to the 45th edition of Expointer machines with digital technologies embedded and connected through software, systems and equipment from the OTMIS Precision Agriculture brand, capable of optimizing agricultural production in all its stages.
“Integrated machines and software are essential for complete delivery given the current demand in agriculture. Therefore, we have invested in the development of solutions with more connectivity, sustainability and online management, in order to unite all participants in the agricultural environment: the farmer, the business ecosystem, information systems and all the 'things' present in the field. ”, explains Fernando Gonçalves, president of Jacto.
In this sense, the company also shows the concept of connectivity in machines on tractor lines, with the integrated Omni 700 set and Multicontrol input application system, expanding the offer to serve producers with different profiles and property sizes.
“The continuous search in the development of our equipment is to reduce waste, increase productivity in the same area and reduce operating costs. With the advancement and popularization of new technologies in agricultural equipment, all producers have the possibility of producing more and better. The evolution of application technologies, together with precision agriculture from OTMIS and the integrated management of the EKOS management platform, contributes to achieving these aspects”, assesses Paulo Henrique Bueno, business manager for the Jacto tractorized sprayer line.
Among other new features that will be presented to farmers is the telemetry concept for other models in the tractor sprayer line, such as the Advance 3000 AM-24 Tandem, equipment developed with specifications for rice production. It features Multicontrol, a system with technologies that allow the same product application rate to be applied across the entire field, even with changes in application speed. Multicontrol also has a very friendly interface with other Precision Agriculture systems, which enhances productivity gains and further reduces costs.
Representing Jacto's new planting line is the Meridia 200 tractorized and self-transportable planter, available on the market with 11, 13 and 15 lines. The machine has, among other benefits, better plantability and a more efficient straw flow, enabling agile, precise and quality planting.
Among the new features in fertilization are double variable rate control, which increases efficiency in the use of inputs and explores the productive potential in different management zones, and ISOBUS Communication, a “plug and play” solution for some virtual terminals.
The Tellus 10.000 NPK fertilizer machine now has the optional wheelset for better performance in rice cultivation. The cultivation of rice irrigated by flood, with the presence of a layer of water, is the reality in almost 90% of rice crops in Brazil, being present in a large part of the areas of the state of Rio Grande do Sul.
This practice, in addition to ensuring greater productivity, brings several other advantages when compared to rainfed conditions (without irrigation). A very common solution to retain water in crops is to delimit them in contour lines, thus building dikes on these curves in the plot, more popularly known as rammed earth. With the optional wheelset with wider 14,9x 24-inch tires, the machine can work in these fields without damaging the earthworks.
Jacto also updated the SmartSet technology, which gained a mobile version. SmartSet helps the farmer adjust the application range of the Uniport 5030 NPK and Tellus 10.000 NPK fertilizer machines. This activity, previously done manually and through trial and error, required a lot of time and attention for correct adjustment and calibration of the machine.
The Uniport Family, of self-propelled sprayers from Jacto, recognized for bringing solutions with more technology and efficiency, will be represented at the event with the models Uniport 2000 Plus, Uniport 2030, Uniport 2530, Uniport 3030 and Uniport 4530. The options serve producers looking for a quality application, with precision, operational performance and economy.
In particular, the Uniport 3030 has a configuration with tires and bar that suits the work in rice cultivation and combines all the spraying technology already established in its version for cereals, with emphasis on the nozzle-to-nozzle spraying system that allows savings in the consumption of pesticides and greater precision in the application of products
Among the Uniport sprayers, there will be a demonstration of PWM technology, which allows for even more uniform spraying, maintaining droplet size even with variations in machine speed. Integrated into the nozzle-to-nozzle system, this technology automatically manages the operation, being activated only when necessary.
In conjunction with the spraying system with PWM control, Jacto also demonstrates its technology for localized application of products to combat weeds. This technology allows savings in the application of products and a reduction in the amount of water used, extremely important points when we talk about sustainability and increased operational performance.
Also highlighted in the models for the OTMIS multi-brand solutions package, which bring together GPS guidance systems, such as a light bar, Omni 700 autopilot in electric and hydraulic versions, telemetry, the exclusive operations repeater, GPS receivers for correction of signal and a series of sensors and automation devices that help with traffic control, reduce the crop crushing area and apply inputs at variable rates.
With a focus on developing spraying technologies and solutions, Jacto expands the offering in its nozzle portfolio with the launch of the new family of Jacto JIC nozzles (Jacto Inclined Ceramic / Jacto Inclinado Cerâmica).
Ideal for applying insecticide and fungicide contact products, the JIC is made of high-resistance ceramic, which gives the component durability. The nozzle is available in six flow rates, which suits different customer profiles who need to use different application rates. The standard flat fan jet format of 110° and an inclination angle of 35° provides greater deposition of the product on the target, with excellent coverage performance and can be used with Jacto's PWM technology.
The Uniport Family will also be represented at Expointer with the Uniport 3030 EletroVortex. The self-propelled sprayer is equipped with exclusive technology that combines air assistance at the spray bars with electrostatic charging of the droplets. The system allows the pesticide to reach the lower parts of the crops, improving deposition on both the upper and lower sides of the leaves and contributing to a superior quality of application.
With the application rate at a lower volume, in field tests, it was possible to make applications of 40 to 70 L/hectare. This feature allowed for fewer stops for refueling, as, due to the lower volume applied, the reservoir remains full for longer. The result is a larger application window during the working day, increasing the sprayer's operational performance.
Also noteworthy is the reduction in airborne drift by up to 35% and the best quality in the spray deposit throughout the plant structure. The electrostatic effect associated with air assistance provides up to 2 times the deposit in the middle third of the plant when compared to conventional application technologies.
Another result of superior quality applications is the potential to increase the productivity of the harvested area, as the plant remains free from pests and diseases for longer.
With the aim of simplifying the adoption of new technologies and helping to achieve high levels of business performance, quality and sustainability, Jacto Next offers a wide range of services. One of the highlights is the EKOS platform, developed to centralize the management of all agricultural operations present in the cereal, fiber, fruit and sugar-energy sector. Sensors installed on machines -- of any brand, regardless of whether it is Jacto or not -- allow operations to be monitored online. Information is made available via the Jacto Connect app, in the palm of your hand, for quick and accurate decisions.
