John Deere is helping farmers with sophisticated insights through there Big Data analysis
Farming is all about maximizing yield and managing costs. Good farmers know when to fertilize, when to plant, when to spray, and when to harvest, meaning they get more of whatever they plant. And they don’t waste water, fertilizer, fuel or time.
Think of a wise old farmer, walking through a field and touching the ground to feel for moisture, or eying the clouds trying to determine the best time to plant, water, or harvest. Now imagine any farmer, getting the same information from sensors and sophisticated weather forecasts.
One Deere app solution is SeedStar Mobile, which gives farmers row-by-row assessment of the performance of their planting equipment. Farmers can see in real time if seeds are moving through the implement properly, allowing immediate adjustments and making this all-important process more efficient.
