Unlocking efficiency with Central Valley Ag through Ag Leader Technologies
Nov 20, 2024
Agriculture technology continues to evolve, and Central Valley Ag is at the forefront through its partnership with Ag Leader, helping farmers maximize efficiency, reduce waste, and ensure precise application in their fields. Ag Leader's DirectCommand Lineup, BoomLoop™ , RightSpot® , SeedCommand lineup and Turnpath technologies offer innovative solutions that streamline operations. Here's how these advancements can enhance productivity and coverage on any terrain.
Tech Your Applicator
Ag Leader's DirectCommand lineup offers cutting-edge application technology, giving farmers a customizable approach to precision agriculture. With seamless integration into the InCommand Go 16 Display, DirectCommand ensures total visibility and control, empowering the operators to maximize productivity and efficiency across various application tasks.
The DirectCommand lineup is designed to meet the diverse needs of farm operations, providing independent and precise control over sprayers, NH3 applicators, and liquid fertilizer systems. ISOBUS compatible controller also available.
Here's a closer look at how DirectCommand, along with the innovative BoomLoop and RightSpot systems, provides unparalleled application accuracy.
RightSpot: Enhanced Coverage with Nozzle-by-Nozzle Precision
RightSpot technology takes spraying precision to the next level by using pulse technology, allowing each nozzle to maintain a specific pressure and droplet size. This system is particularly beneficial for:
- Improved Consistency: Ensures uniform coverage across the field, which is often challenging without nozzle-specific control. The system dynamically adjusts to maintain the ideal droplet size, reducing skips and overlaps.
- Adaptability Across Terrains: RightSpot responds to varying field conditions, ensuring the correct application rate even on an uneven terrain or changing speeds.
- Reduced Drift: By achieving the ideal droplet size, RightSpot lowers the risk of drift, keeping neighboring crops safe from unintended exposure.
BoomLoop: Optimized Recirculation for Improved Productivity
The BoomLoop system is an integrated recirculation tool that brings multiple advantages to sprayer operators. This fully automated system facilitates priming and flushing by allowing product to flow smoothly from each nozzle back to the tank. Designed to work in tandem with Ag Leader's RightSpot technology, BoomLoop provides:
- Automated Priming: Ensures effective boom priming without wasting product or risking off-target application. Sequenced priming helps the operator prepare the equipment quickly, leading to efficient and immediate spraying when required.
- Reduced Chemical Buildup: By eliminating dead spots and recirculating contents, BoomLoop reduces the chances of chemical buildup. This feature is essential for maintaining a clean, high-performing boom.
- Increased Convenience: Through its InCommand display, operators can monitor and control BoomLoop functions with ease, ensuring a smooth workflow across all spraying tasks.
Together, Right Spot and BoomLoop offer a comprehensive solution for modern spraying needs, helping farmers tackle coverage challenges while conserving resources and optimizing productivity.
Tech Your Planter
Ag Leader's SeedCommand lineup offers state-of-the-art planting technology tailored to the unique demands of each farm operation, providing full planter control and real-time visibility through the InCommand Go 16 display.
- SureSpeed: This system ensures exceptional singulation and spacing accuracy at speeds up to 12 mph, delivering a uniform plant stand and optimized performance across the field.
- SureForce: With automatic downforce and uplift adjustments, SureForce adapts to varying soil types, compaction levels and planter weight, enabling precise planting depth in challenging conditions.
- SureDrive: This technology offers row-by-row control, turn compensation, and variable rate planting, maintaining consistent population through every curve and contour.
Together, SeedCommand's innovative features help farmers achieve a precise, productive planting season every time.
TurnPath: Precision Hands-Free Steering for Perfect End-of-Row Turns
Ag Leader's TurnPath offers farmers hands-free steering for automatic, repeatable end-of-row turns. This automated system generates precise guidance lines as equipment approaches the end of each pass, creating an accurate path to the next row without any button presses.
With TurnPath, operators can fine-tune turns while autosteer is engaged, making it easy to achieve smooth, uniform results. This flexibility suits a variety of operations, from maintaining consistency in tillage, reducing overshooting in planting, or minimizing overlaps and misses in applications or harvests. Simple to set up, TurnPath helps streamline field operations, delivering accuracy and efficiency across all tasks.
