FarmPRO.


This GPS steering and application system is the result of an on-going collaborative product development agreement between AutoFarm[R] and Raven Industries. Designed for professional growers and custom applicators, FarmPro combines the Viper PRO display and control system from Raven Industries to the sub-inch accurate RTK AutoSteer[TM] from AutoFarm. FarmPro's steering and application control system is at the operator's fingertip through a single large screen display, as an all-in-one system for variable rate control and complete boom management and sub-inch accurate RK steering. The one terminal in the cab takes the place of multiple screens that carry multiple but separate applications. FarmPro's functions include: WAAS to RTK steering accuracy options, as-applied maps, variable rate control of up to five products, automatic boom height, automatic boom section control, 10.4" color touchscreen display, Windows XP operating system, auto calibration of steering and application functions, data transfer via USB key and shape file format for export to back office software. The FarmPro system will be available through select dealers in the distribution channels of both AutoFarm and Raven in March 2008. www.gpsfarm.com; www.ravenprecision.com
