Smart Farming is the logical evolution of Precision Farming. Within arable farming, this covers all management methods that take into account the small-scale differences such as soil types within a single field. While precision farming is focused on the technology for precise application, the emphasis of smart farming is on information-guided crop production. [...]
Assessing risks Well-known tractor sensors for nitrogen fertilization and plant protection measures use the same measuring principle as satellite images - the reflectance of the vegetation in the visible and near infrared as an indicator for the crop status and the total biomass of the crop. The same or similar methods can also [...]
Identify areas more easily Compliance with the so-called greening requirements is a condition for the receipt of the full direct payments under the EU's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). A key element of the CAP reform is the designation of "ecological priority areas", which most farms have to identify within their agricultural areas. Our [...]
Yield Planning TalkingFields supports you in the cultivation, documentation and planning of your acreage with three innovative products which not only document the development of your crops from space but also provide you with the absolute yield in tons per hectare. These are the TF Yield Map as well as the TF Yield [...]
Consider site-characteristics For the site-specific application of mineral and organic fertilizers, especially nitrogen fertilizer, three differently complex approaches using TalkingFields products have proven their worth. Accordingly, you can optimize the site-specific fertilization of your fields in three stages, depending on requirements and effort. On the one hand, the TF Base Map can be [...]
Under development... TalkingFields Biomass Map The TF Biomass Map shows the total above-ground dry biomass on the field in t/ha at a specific date. The crop growth can be monitored during the growing season in order to be able to react appropriately to current conditions. Four TF Biomass Maps will be delivered [...]
Utilizing the available potential The TF Base Map shows long-term crop vigor patterns within fields derived from satellite data. This enables you to efficiently adjust to the natural site-specific yield potential already during seeding. Instead of distributing valuable seed uniformly over the field, the evaluation of the biomass patterns in your fields gives [...]
Utilize the products in any Software Supplied in AO Agrar-Office compatible format or as a widely known shape format (point) our data can be used in most common agricultural software products with GIS capability or in any GIS software. Other delivery formats (raster formats preferred) are available on request. The TalkingFields products presented [...]
TF Base Map The TF Base Map has the following applications: Seed smart! Fertilization smart! Plant Protection smart! The TF Base Map also is the basis for planning an optimized GNSS-based soil sampling. It can be imported in most Farm Management Software. Further information can be found under Our Methods and in the [...]
