Section and Rate Control

Case IH application technology, engineering and expertise maximizes yield potential, keeps fields clean and plants healthy. Technology like AccuBoom automatic section control automatically turns off appropriate boom sections when the sprayer enters an area where product has been applied and automatically turns them back on when leaving a pre-applied area.

Case IH section and rate control precisely places seed and fertilizer to efficiently manage time and resources.

• Plant and apply fertilizer by prescription using prior yield data and soil characteristics.
• Reduce overlaps and manage input costs with automatic shutoff and turn-on for individual rows or sections.
• Automatically shut off sections when previously treated/seeded areas are entered, during headland turns and around irregular boundaries.
• Make fewer trips across the field with variable-rate application of up to three different products in the same pass.

RCM lets you plug in equipment, set the product and rate mix, and go. RCM instantly recognizes every device, program and file, controlling up to five liquid and dry product rates per unit while moving through the field. It can be used in numerous applications, including air seeder, planter, sprayer, spreader, toolbar, and sidedress.

RCM is easy to calibrate, tune and troubleshoot with diagnostic tests and readings. Compatible with many ISOBUS virtual terminals, it is easy to transfer between machines. Store up to eight individual profiles for different machines. User preferences stay the same across each machine using RCM.

AccuBoom ensures every application is as accurate as possible with section shutoff. When a boom goes over a section that has been sprayed, AccuBoom automatically shuts off the nozzles that go over that area, preventing overlap and potential crop damage. It compensates for speed, ensuring the shut-off function is properly timed. AccuBoom is standard for Patriot sprayers and Trident liquid systems.

AccuSection on the Precision Air 5 Series Air Cart uses individual electronic meter drives to give primary run control on a per-meter basis, avoiding overseeding and overfertilizing. Easily set seed rates and get a full view of the tank bin level, in-tank camera feed, ladder position and any other warnings on the display. With AccuSection, optimize straight passes or take on advanced rate control features such as curve compensation and variable by section monitoring.
