2023 Fendt ISOBUS

Electronic features are making farming machinery smarter. With ISOBUS, tractors and attachments can communicate in the same language – making them safer, more precise and more efficient. With the right equipment, the hookup takes over certain functions completely automatically. This means less effort for the driver and increases productivity.

ISOBUS is a standardized data transmission system between the tractor and the attachment. The standardization of the system is based on the ISO 11783 norm. All signals, including the speed and PTO speed, are available in standardized form.

An ISOBUS system consists of various components, including the tractor, terminal and equipment. It all comes down to what the terminal and attachment are capable of doing. This in turn depends on which ISOBUS functionalities are available and activated in the individual components of the ISOBUS system. Only functionalities that are included in all the components involved can be shared. For example, if you want to use the Fendt Section Control automatic subsection function, TC-SC must be activated on both the terminal and your Section Control-enabled attachment.

The timely switching on and off of the planter, fertilizer spreader or sprayer requires quite a bit of practice at the headland. The longer the hookup, the harder it becomes to get your timing right. Odd-shaped fields or wedges also get in the way of neat field work. The bigger the working width of the implement, the bigger the wasted overlap. Fendt Section Control is the answer.

Clean contacts even on irregularly sectioned fields.

• Save up to 15% on your resources by avoiding unwanted overlaps

• Reduce disease, pest and weed pressure by avoiding overly dense stocks and weak spots

• Less work for the driver, who can focus fully on monitoring the equipment

• Improve results with clean connections at the headland

• Headland mode: Option to work the inner field first, then the headland

Double seeding, spraying or fertilizing means using up resources unnecessarily. Stocks that are too dense also lead to unwanted differences in emergence and weeds.

Each run-out is inherently different, no field is uniform in itself. Different relief and soil types mean that the plants cannot be supplied evenly, which in turn leads to varying plant emergence within a single run-out. Maximising your yield therefore requires you to align your measures to the specific soil conditions. Fendt Variable Rate Control is the right function for this.

Variable Rate Control controls the output volume of resources (seeds, pesticides, fertilizers) for each subsection of field. To benefit from this smart solution, you need VarioDoc Pro / Fendt Task Doc, Fendt Section Control and an ISOBUS TC-GEO standard licence.
