In the following video we show you how we started the 2022 planting season to obtain better results and higher yield per hectare in corn cultivation.
We also installed the autoguidance equipment for the @FJDynamics tractor that steers with satellite and rtk base High precision guidance and direction

Electric steering wheel
It consists of a steering motor and a flywheel. Ensures proper operation even in harsh scenarios; Interchangeable between autopilot and manual control. It is not necessary to change the original hydraulic system of the tractor.

Display and control terminal
Human-Machine Interface (HMI), tractor control and communication terminal. The size is 10.1 inches, users can view and control the status of agricultural machinery.

wheel angle sensor
Wheel rotation angle tracking provides real-time prediction of heading direction.
IMU - Attitude Sensor
Provide terrain compensation. It guarantees the precision of the operation in inclined fields at high speed.

IMU - FJDynamics Auto Steering Kit Attitude Sensor
Antenna
GNSS antenna
Receive information from the satellite and get the coordinates of the tractor. This tractor auto steering kit comes with two GNSS antennas, one for positioning and one for orientation.
±2.5cm Combine GNSS with an RTK correction signal from an optional RTK base station, or combine GNSS with a commercial RTK subscription service.
wide compatibility
FJD auto steering kit can be compatible with multiple brands of tractors, harvesters and other agricultural machinery.

Planting Quality is a series of procedures with the objective of depositing the seed in the soil, with an objective planting density, with homogeneous separation between seeds and an adequate depth that allows developing vigorous plants and providing uniform ears, expressed in better yields. .

A poor seed distribution causes doubles or seedless spaces that cause dominated plants with "horrible" ears that will reduce yield due to competition between plants.

It is recommended to deposit seed 5 cm below the ground to improve rooting and anchoring of the plant.

Some factors that intervene in the quality of sowing are:

Land preparation, adequate humidity
Machinery conditions (maintenance)
Planter Calibration (Gears-Density)
sowing speed
Planting depth – Try to place the seed according to the soil conditions for optimal emergence
Seed/seedling pest and disease management
preventive review

The seeder is undoubtedly the most important piece of equipment for the farmer. Checking and giving preventive maintenance to the planter is one of the most controllable and cheapest variables, which directly affect the quality of the planting.

The preventive review is a practice known as "Zero Investment", it is not invested in new machinery, tools, etc., only paying attention to details before and at the time of planting that will surely bring benefits to the harvest.
