Section and Rate Control

Manage Your Inputs

AFS section and rate control is standard equipment on new Early Riser® planters and optional on Patriot® sprayers. For competitive implements, AFS ISOBUS Task controller SW is easy to use with the AFS Pro 700 display.

AFS precision farming technology helps you use your management skills to full advantage.

Patriot Sprayers

Save on inputs and increase your spray efficiency on Patriot sprayers. Automatically turn off appropriate boom sections when the sprayer enters an area where product has already been applied, and automatically turn them back on when leaving a pre-applied area with AccuBoom automatic section control.

When a Patriot sprayer enters an internally marked area like a waterway, you can set AccuBoom to automatically turn off sections and automatically turn them back on when the sprayer leaves this boundary.

Early Riser Planters

Plant and apply fertiliser by prescription with Early Riser planters. Reduce overlaps and manage input costs with the automatic shutoff and turn-on for Early Riser planter sections.

Use applied product coverage maps or preset boundaries to control sections without operator intervention.

This mapping feature shows where you’ve been and what you’ve done, delivering improved efficiency, seed savings and increased yields.

AFS Variety Tracking

Keep accurate records of seed varieties, inputs and performance from planting through to harvest automatically with AFS Variety Tracking.

Use data from planting for up to 30 different seed varieties per field in conjunction with yield and moisture data tracked at harvest to easily and accurately analyse variety performance.
