Variable Rate Technology
Variable rate fertilizing and sprayer rate technologies are for those who are further along in their precision farming journey and require an advanced (Level 3) precision farming-ready display to take advantage of their benefits. Having a conversation with your New Holland dealer should be your first step when considering implementing these technologies into your operation.
We have the variable rate fertilizing and sprayer rate technology solutions that are compatible with both New Holland and mixed fleet ecosystems. So whichever one you run, we have the hardware and software to help you maximize your efficiencies day in and day out.
While upgrading your current equipment with variable rate technology can help you achieve greater levels of precision accuracy, you should speak with your New Holland dealer to determine whether it’s a cost-effective option for you and your operation. Investing in new equipment, factory fit with the latest variable rate technology, is another option to consider.
Deliver inputs precisely where you want them.
With variable rate technologies, you can increase your accuracy and efficiency season after season. Because when you optimize your inputs, you have the potential to maximize your outputs. The following are options to choose from when considering variable rate technologies for your operation.
Variable Rate Fertilizer
Solutions that allow operators to apply different rates of fertilizer across their fields to reduce input cost and improve nutrient management for maximum yield.
Raven Rate Control Module (RCM)
- Rate control module that lets you control up to five liquid and dry products per controller
- Easy to calibrate, tune and troubleshoot with diagnostic tests and readings
- Supports more than 200 different applications, including air seeders, planters, spreaders, toolbars and side dress applicators
- Stores up to eight transferable individual profiles that can be used across machines
- Intuitive interface via ISOBUS virtual terminals for operators of all skill levels
Raven AccuFlow™
- An anhydrous ammonia (NH3) distribution system that converts gas to liquid, keeping it cold and fluid during application
- Fast cooling and high capacity
- Application rates up to 80 gallons per minute allows you to cover more acres per day
- Replaces dual cooler systems (when paired with Raven control system) to deliver more accuracy, less product waste, lower input costs and faster application speeds with less refills and higher yields
Raven AccuFlow™ HP
Has the same features as the Raven AccuFlow system, plus the following two additional features:
- Two-Stage Valve Control System: When flow demand exceeds a fully opened valve, the HP pump engages to reach desired rate
- Dynamic Valve Control: Commanded to react at a slower speed for lower rates and a faster speed at faster rates
Sprayer Rate Technology
Solutions that help operators work more efficiently when applying crop inputs.
Raven VSN
- Noncontact camera-based unit that provides machine guidance through emerged to full canopy crops.
- Easy to use and allows operator to cover more acres due to increased speed and more efficient field planning
- Highly precise, instantaneous crop row information is fed into the auto steering component
- Uses controlled traffic patterns to actual planted rows, minimizing crop damage for reduced respraying and weed infestation
- Allows operators to drive damage-free speeds up to 20 mph
- Helps you cover more acres per day, maximizing yield and ROI
Raven Hawkeye® II Nozzle Control
- Efficient spray control system with consistent flow control, accuracy and field durability
- Individual on/off nozzle control valves are accurate and self-adjust to corners, contours and headlands to avoid over- and under-spraying
- Work faster and save on input costs
- Make fewer tip changes
- Helps to improve your coverage quality and minimize input costs
New Holland Intellispray™ II
Has the same features as the Raven AccuFlow system, plus the following two additional features:
- Works to maintain your ideal chemical application rate, pressure and accuracy, regardless of speed or terrain
- Optimizes application rates and droplet sizes for consistent application
- Sprays at faster speeds or applies more product as needed with 17% higher flow rates
- Compensates for different speeds across the boom to ensure correct application rates during turns
