SEEDCOMMAND™

Today’s high-tech seed isn’t cheap. If you’re not in proper control of how much seed you plant or where it's planted, you’re probably sacrificing yield potential and bottom line performance.


SEEDCOMMAND BENEFITS:

  • Variable rate planting: maximize yield based on variations in the field
  • Autoswath automatic shut-offs: eliminate overplanting at point rows and already-planted areas
  • Advanced seed monitoring: reduce doubles and skips, and improve spacing with seed-by-seed views of your row units
  • Down force pressure: plant at proper seed depth across the planter toolbar
  • Year round displays: AG Leader displays map and record all your field activities – from planting through harvest
  • Complete package: paired with our automated steering systems and SMS™ software, you’ve got a complete year-round package


ADVANCED SEED MONITORING

Seedcommand™ offers complete planter monitoring functions, eliminating the need for an additional planter monitor.Seedcommand offers complete planter monitoring functions, eliminating the need for an additional planter monitor.

Seedcommand


  • Automatically determines and displays the rows operating at the highest and lowest levels for singulation and population
  • Virtual seed trench for a seed-by-seed view to assist in diagnosing problematic rows
  • Bottom line benefits
  • Improve planter performance by reducing or eliminating skips and doubles
  • Prevents yield loss due to lodging and nutrient competition in double-planted areas


SECTIONAL CONTROL

Seedcommand's Autoswath™ feature offers sectional control by automatically turning planter sections on or off row-by-row based on field maps and already-seeded areas.

REDUCE OVERPLANTING WITH SEEDCOMMAND

AUTOSWATH BENEFITS
Automatically turns planter rows on/off based on field maps and already-seeded areas. If row shutoffs are not present on the planter, we offer low maintenance, easy-to-install automatic row shutoffs to equip your planter.

  • Eliminates double planting at end rows, point rows and around terraces
  • Makes following the row at harvest easier when navigating end rows
  • Improves planting productivity by eliminating the need to slow down to accurately raise or lower the planter at end rows
  • Makes night planting easier by eliminating the need to watch for end rows
  • Reduces lodging at point rows, resulting in increased yield.


HYDRAULIC DOWN FORCE SYSTEM

Monitor and control planter down force on-the-go using an ag leader display. The new hydraulic down force system offers up to 8 sections of control and adjusts pressure instantaneously based on field topography and soil conditions.


BENEFITS AND FEATURES:

  • Consistent, proper planting depth no matter the field
  • Automatic response time, unlike air bag systems that can take up to 20 seconds or more to respond
  • Improves planting productivity by eliminating the need to slow down to accurately raise or lower the planter at end rows
  • Minimal row unit stress and bounce
  • Multiple channels of control, which adjust sections of the planter separately to apply optimal down force
  • Virtual terminal capability through a new isobus module provides functionality with any virtual terminal capable display and lets users choose 1-4 sensors per channel
  • Valve block mounted to the toolbar allows for multiple configurations and added flexibility.

VARIABLE RATE CONTROL 


Enables variable rate application by product for more efficient use of inputs. Variable rate allows the operatorTo utilize prescription maps for seeding and application rates, matching their seed and fertilizer inputs toAttributes such as soil type. 


AUTOSWATH™ 

Autoswath

MORE BENEFITS TO EXPLORE
ENHANCED CALIBRATION ROUTINES/STORED CALIBRATIONS 

  • Automated calibration routines for initial machine setup 
  • Density stored internally by product/seed within the system 
  • Metering circuit calibration stored internally by product/meter circuit combination 
  • System automatically prompts the user to calibrate each product/meter circuit combination on first use 
  • Easily accessible tables for referencing stored meter calibration values 
  • In-field calibration routine allows fine tuning of calibration if required after applying a known volume 


METER PRIME 

A simple, automated method to charge metering circuits after filling machine allows the metering shaft to be adjusted based on a user-defined specification. When the meter cavity is filled with seed accordingly, skips in the field are reduced.

ISOBus

PLM™ ISOBUS TASK CONTROLLER


PLM™ CROP MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS

With PLM™ implement control systems you can automatically shut on and off individual planter sections, monitor and record planter population and control rate and flow of materials in seeding, spraying and fertilizer applications to better manage variability across your entire field.


PLM™ ISOBUS TASK CONTROLLER

Control mixed fleets of compliant isobus compatible implements using your integrated New Holland Intelliview


IV display.

  • Send commands to an isobus compliant implement to modify its actions based on gps position
  • Automatically switch on/off planter sections
  • Prevent seed and fertilizer overlap
  • Control application rates with prescription maps
  • Map and log job dates
  • Single display solution on new holland equipment for running key tractor functions, auto guidance andControlling mixed fleets of implements


VARIABLE RATE APPLICATION

Variability in fields can be influenced by factors such as soil properties, topography, cropping history, field use, etc. Gps position is communicated to the rate controller as the application equipment moves across different zones in the field, enabling it to vary application rates by zone.

Rather than just applying a constant seed rate, apply higher seed populations in well irrigated, or highly fertile, areas to maximize yield performance and lower application rates in less fertile areas or areas with poor irrigation.

Also apply more or fewer chemicals or fertilizers in areas as needed, lowering input cost and further enhancing yields.

Automatic


AUTOMATIC SECTION CONTROL

Section control automatically shuts off rows or sections, eliminating double applications of seed and fertilizer. It uses the tractor’s gps system to automatically turn on and off individual planter sections in areas that have already been covered, or at headland turns, point rows, waterways, terraces, etc. Double planting of rows is avoided, enhancing yields and eliminating waste.
