As innovative supplier of agricultural implements, Kverneland Group profiles itself as leading company in the field of electronic steering systems. The communication concept iM FARMING describes and presents our offering on ISOBUS machinery and solutions for electronic steering of implement – giving an insight into the benefits and efficiency of our extensive offering.

Precise seeding with GEOCONTROL & GEOSEED

GEOCONTROL – cost saving with immediate payback
The more precisely and evenly a seed is sown, the easier it is to work and harvest, and the greater is the possible yield. Seeding with GPS and GEOCONTROL in combination with an electric driven precision drill is a major step towards precision and cost saving. These machines are all equipped with ISOBUS technology which, with the help of the IsoMatch Tellus terminal, can be easily controlled.

Each electric driven seeding element, in combination with GPS and GEOCONTROL, is automatically switched on or off in exactly the right place, ensuring there is no overlap with any row that has already been seeded. This is especially handy in triangular fields, on curved or irregular shaped headlands. You can also continue seeding at night since the switching on/off of the seed elements is completely reliable.

GEOSEED - Precision at high end
The patented GEOSEED system is the most advanced option for Unicorn synchro-drive II.

GEOSEED is offered in two different levels:
GEOSEED Level 1 is the synchronization within the machines working width. This improves the distribution of seeds up to perfection in parallel or diamond pattern: Positive effects are the best use of nutrients, water and sun. Also wind and water erosion is decreased.

GEOSEED Level 2 is the synchronization in the whole field. This is the necessary requirement for interrow cultivation, also across the seeding direction. GEOSEED is the only system in the world that makes this mechanic weeds control possible!
