QuadRate Pro*, announced at the latest Agritechnica trade fair, is a cutting-edge technology integrated into the Monosem ValoTerra planter. QuadRate Pro represents a significant advancement in the agricultural sector, offering the ability to modulate row by row application rates for seeds, fertilization, and micro-granulated products, simultaneously during sowing.
QuadRate Pro, designed to meet the needs of farmers keen to optimize their yields while preserving the environment, presents a set of essential features on a precision planter:
- Row-by-row dose modulation : Thanks to the new 56-volt architecture of the ValoTerra
planter range, QuadRate Pro can manage up to 32 intelligent motors on an 8-row planter. - Simultaneous dose modulation: This unique system allows the precise modulation of
the dose of seeds, fertilizer products and 2 micro-granulated products, all this row by row, via
4 different modulation maps. The ValoTerra metering box, the FertiSmart dispenser and the
MicroSmart combine to guarantee maximum precision. - Cutting-edge software: The SeedStar M software (ISOBUS application embedded in
the ValoTerra range) is specially designed to efficiently manage these four products row by
row, ensuring highly precise georeferenced documentation for the application of seeds,
fertilizers, and micro granules.
QuadRate Pro offers a unique combination of features that significantly reduce the use
of agricultural inputs. This technology makes it possible to reduce seed density in low-yielding
areas while minimizing the use of fertilizers and phytosanitary products. Optimizing inputs
maximizes the potential of each land while promoting optimal growing conditions for crops,
thereby increasing profitability.
Additionally, QuadRate Pro simplifies product application with direct import of “readyto-plant” modulation maps. This guarantees high precision for sowing, accessible to all
operators, thus eliminating concerns related to the quantity of products to be applied to different
parts of the plot. In addition, this technology helps reduce the environmental impact of
agriculture by adapting the application of inputs, particularly in border areas where biodiversity
is important. QuadRate Pro also ensures complete documentation of seeding operations,
meeting the strictest traceability standards, ensuring increased transparency.
