CropX adds variable rate application maps to increase farm efficiency

October 3, 2024

CropX has launched an enhanced variable rate application (VRA) planning capability for growers to use to improve the precision of their in-field operations.

The latest VRA capability allows users to create detailed seeding and fertilizer application maps for their fields and easily export the maps to machinery for immediate implementation.

In tandem with the VRA launch, CropX has enhanced its variable rate irrigation (VRI) technology to make the creation of irrigation scripts easier and more customizable. The new and improved VRI is now fully integrated with the VRA tool, enabling users to develop scripts with the same custom-derived management zones as those used in VRA.

“CropX’s new VRA capability offers another pathway to farm optimization,” said Taha Ghaznavi, Global SVP Product of CropX. “By allowing farmers to apply inputs and seeding more accurately and efficiently, we are not only improving crop health and yield but also contributing to more sustainable agricultural practices. This integration with our enhanced VRI technology provides a comprehensive solution that addresses the diverse needs of modern farming.”

Farmers and agricultural managers will find the new VRA capability particularly beneficial in addressing the challenges posed by variable soil conditions and climate change. The ability to customize application maps and seamlessly implement them in the field ensures that resources are used effectively, leading to healthier crops and more productive fields, according to the company.
