New Holland and Case IH are introducing new advancements in their precision technology stack to make farming easier and more efficient for customers.
FieldOps and Connectivity Included have become part of duo’s technology offering that is designed to help customers have a seamless experience across New Holland and Case IH’s digital and connected platforms.
Now live and available for download in the App Store and Google Play, FieldOps is a farm management tool, said to help farmers expand their productivity from anywhere at any time, by taking their farm operations data and details and bringing them into one platform that is easy to use, understand and connect.
Built for users at every skill level, crop specialty, region and size of operation; by using a mobile connection or Wi-Fi, Australasian farmers will be able to monitor every machine, remotely view in-cab displays to offer better feedback to their operators and see layers of agronomic data, in one place, allowing more to be done with fewer clicks.
Customers can download the new mobile app to view their connected machines, while existing MyPLM Connect and AFS Connect users can safely transition to FieldOps, knowing their data will already be there when they log in.
To make data management easier, FieldOps has over 40 API connections available globally, allowing for integration with third-party digital platforms. Customers can choose how they own their data, deciding to import it all into FieldOps or to export the FieldOps data to another platform. This removes the need for unnecessary data re-entry, making the overall digital experience easier across an entire farming operation.
“Connectivity Included” is a new feature that grants customers limitless connectivity with no recurring subscription fees, on qualifying machines built on or after October 1, 2024. This offering provides data and remote support to farmers without managing or renewing a subscription.
Said to be a completely new approach to connectivity that makes data accessible by simply making it a baseline feature on the selected models, it can expand the reach and utility of connected features. Customers with existing machines and capable telematics modems can purchase Connectivity Included functionality for a one-time fee via their local New Holland or Case IH dealer.
Jeremy Duniam, head of Precision Technology at CNH ANZ, says “We are offering our customers a tool that adds significant value and ease of use.
