With SEED COMPLETE, PÖTTINGER offers a tool for your success by optimising the management of your farming operations. SEED COMPLETE is a package of intelligent smart farming solutions including a communication unit offered for our VITASEM, AEROSEM and TERRASEM seed drills.
Section Control and Variable Rate Control are available as standard equipment.
Stress free operation for the driver with the seed drill switching on and off automatically.
Increases efficiency and improves the cost effectiveness of the farm: Saves resources
Avoids overlaps in wedge-shaped fields when sowing and fertilising.
Takes into account the differences in soil quality and yield potential within a field during drilling.
Section Control refers to the automatic switching of whole or partial working widths of the implement. Section Control is a convenient, efficient and resource-saving solution for headlands and for awkwardly shaped fields.
Section Control makes sure that you have tidy ends at the headland for one final perimeter pass. By avoiding unwanted overlaps, you save resources, avoid crop growth rate differences, and prevent inconsistent crop densities, reducing the threat of disease, pests, and weeds. Another advantage is that first the inside of the field and then the headland can be worked on.
Variable Rate Control offers site specific application of seed/fertiliser taking the site soil conditions into consideration. The basis for this is an application map, which you create on the farm PC before starting work in the field. An FMIS (Farm Management and Information System), of which there are now various providers, will help you. An application map provides information on the application rates adapted to the soil conditions, which are marked in different colour zones. When creating application maps, you can draw on your own experience with the respective field, as well as soil samples, satellite data, etc.
