LESS INPUTS. HIGHER YIELDS

Variable Rate Control delivers precisely the planned amount of input to the right area, resulting in healthier crops and better yields, while optimising input use.

THE OPTIMAL AMOUNT OF INPUT IN THE RIGHT PLACE

Variable Rate Control by Valtra is an area-specific application rate control programme. It uses preplanned prescription maps to control the rate of application of seed, fertilizer or crop protection products or specific implement functions such as working depth when cultivating. Variable Rate Control is compatible with the ISOXML standard and is compatible with Shape files enabling you to work with a range of standard software to create detailed and accurate prescription maps. 

AUTOMATICALLY AVOID CROP COMPETITION AND OVER- OR UNDER-APPLYING

Ensure even and consistent growth by eliminating over-applying or under-applying fertiliser or plant protection products. 

VARY THE RATES YOU ARE WORKING WITH ACCORDING TO YOUR PRESCRIPTION MAP

Valtra Variable Rate Control automatically adjusts rates per area according to your preplanned prescription map.

Common rates which can be adjusted include:

  • Volume per area (useful for working with sprayers),
  • Mass per area (useful for fertilising), and
  • Count per area (perfect for seed drilling).

You can also control the seed pacing and percentage application rate using Variable Rate Control. 

THE DATA AND DOCUMENTATION YOU NEED

Use data from Variable Rate Control to easily document the actual amount of input applied for better, more accurate documentation to meet your reporting and sustainability requirements.
