Selective spray system and GFX-750 monitor are Trimble highlights at Expodireto 2019

Trimble, a global manufacturer of technologies for precision agriculture, highlights at Expodireto Cotrijal, which takes place between March 11th and 15th in Não-Me-Toque (RS), a set of easy-to-use solutions capable of reducing costs production and increase productivity.  

One of the main highlights is WeedSeeker, the selective spraying system that applies agricultural pesticides where invasive plants are found, identified using sensors. According to the company, input savings can reach up to 90%. The technology still has the application green on green, which allows weed control even on other crops already planted. Furthermore, as the volume of pesticides applied is smaller, water transport and the amount of packaging used for disposal decrease, directly impacting time, logistics and fuel savings across the entire operation.

The new GFX-750 monitor, one of Trimble's main novelties at the fair, has ISOBUS communication, Android environment, ease of operation, possibility of NextSwath automatic headland maneuver and improved connectivity, which allows the farmer to enhance the operation in the field. Furthermore, it has the NAV-900 controller, which comes with the product, making it possible to transfer from one machine to another quickly and easily.

EZ-Pilot Pro ensures machine alignment on the line. Field-IQ ISOBUS solutions interface with the GFX-750 and other screens that have ISOBUS communication. In addition, it controls the rate for products that are applied in the field, providing a more uniform application, reducing waste and increasing production.

Trimble also brings the Field-IQ planting solutions and the S 1100 Scale to Expodireto. The solution allows the operator to have information about the weight loaded on the machine and, therefore, make strategic decisions during the operation.
