A yield map serves as a tool for identifying problem areas and for helping evaluate the effectiveness of field management practices. The Allegro Field PC and Pro4000 FieldBook are available from HarvestMaster. Accurate weight measurement, combined with precise DGPS positioning, determine yield hundreds of times per acre. Each measurement is then stored in the mobile GPS computer. The mobile field computer continually updates the operator with the current yield, average yield, current load total, acres harvested and harvester speed.
Data points recorded over a field provide the basis for a map of yields.
We ve found the equipment a breeze to operate and work with. The harvesters in the following application photos have HM-500 systems installed on them.
