Data visualization and connectivity
• Pulls data from the field into the cloud
• Enables the viewing of data in digital form as they pass through the field
Visualization Connectivity
• Digital field maps• Integrates field data
from multiple machines
• Syncs with multiple iPads® to share activities

Opportunity for Proactive Fertility Management Through Modeling
Nitrogen Shortfall
>10% of fields1
experienced yield loss due to
insufficient nitrogen
Average impact of yield loss$54/acre
Nitrogen Surplus
>40% of fields1
could benefit from optimizing inputs
Average savings opportunity$13/acre
Sample of >3,800 Fields1
1Representative and random sample of >3,800 Nitrogen Advisor Fields where main Nitrogen application was mineral fertilizer. Assumes $4/bushel corn, $0.40 /lb-N fertilizer costs and average yield of 168 bushels per acre
