Platforms unite

The solution enables growers and agronomists to create treatment recommendations within the Farm Dog mobile application and send them directly from the field to variable rate spray equipment via John Deere Operations Center, without risk of miscommunication of key information. Artificial intelligence will provide users with insights into treatment history, local regulations, crop specifics, and other key agronomic inputs.
