CropX announced today a new digital connection with CLAAS, a global manufacturer of agricultural machinery.

Through this new integration between CropX’s agronomy platform and CLAAS’ digital farm and fleet management platform, users of CLAAS equipment can bring their machine data into CropX for visualization, analysis and creation of variable rate application tasks.

The CropX agronomic farm management system combines data gathered from satellites and the field with agronomic knowledge and advanced AI-assisted machine learning to offer a comprehensive understanding of what is happening in the soil. Users get a snapshot of field conditions and receive recommendations on irrigation timing and quantity, nitrogen leaching and fungal disease crop protection. In addition, users can import data from the world’s most popular agricultural machinery brands, of which CLAAS is the latest. The data can be visualized and used to create maps for variable rate application of seeding, fertigation, and irrigation and harvest yield maps can be added for planning future seasons.

Based in Germany, CLAAS produces combines, self-propelled forage harvesters, tractors, loaders, agricultural balers and grassland harvesting machines as well as agricultural information technology.
