Move up a gear and enjoy a new level of services to manage your crop operations
MONOSEM TC-GEO
The right rate in the right place!
High-precision is the watchword here, to boost savings on inputs, optimize yields and protect the environment!
There was a time when dosing rates adjusted according to a prescription map had to be applied across the entire width of a machine – the planter in our case.
The ValoTerra single-seed planter has now gone a step further to offer you increased precision.
You can now divide the working width into sections of up to four planter units to adjust your planting operations to perfection.
MONOSEM TC-SC
No overlaps!
Eliminating overlaps, saving on inputs and making subsequent crop operations easier are all smart solutions for driving operating efficiency and sustainability!
Managing overlaps is now a standard feature. Besides enabling you to cut back on seeds and inputs, it also helps you manage cultivator runs much more effectively.
The ValoTerra planter's ISOBUS technology includes a GPS device that enables you to manage row cut-offs for up to 24 rows.
The on-board terminal screen displays the cut-offs using a variety of colors and shadings for a clearer overview. What’s more, when a row is cut off, a sound is emitted to notify the operator.
SEEDSTAR M
The software for the ValoTerra precision planter controls and monitors planting operations and is ISOBUS-compliant. You can therefore control your planter from a terminal that is ISOBUS-compatible, such as the Monosem Touch Pro, Touch and Touch Mini consoles.
This user-friendly and intuitive software enables you to set and control seed distribution, as well as monitor planting quality in real time.
You can now enjoy controlling and monitoring your fieldwork with our ergonomic and information-rich software
