NEXT GreenSeeker

Sensor-controlled farming

Fertilisation and plant protection with NEXT GreenSeeker – site-specific, economical and environmentally sound. 

The aim of applying fertiliser and plant protection products is to constantly secure high yields with low inputs. Farming site-specifically enables you to achieve this even while taking into account the differences in your field. We’ll show you how it works.

While you drive over the field, NEXT GreenSeeker determines the vitality and biomass differences in the crop. Even very small deviations are reliably identified using our active system with its own light source. The quality of the crop analysis can be further increased by storing a factor map (map overlay) in the background. The GreenSeeker then uses this map not only to identify the current state of the crop, but also to take into account the varying yield potential within the field, which cannot be detected by a sensor. NEXT GreenSeeker uses this information to control the specific spreading implement using your defined strategy, incl. minimum and maximum rates.

Farmers, as well as all the scientific studies and trials to date, consistently confirm that using NEXT GreenSeeker significantly increases yields and quality, reduces costs and protects the environment in addition.

Benefits

  • Fertiliser and growth regulator doses are optimised through site-specific application
  • Costs are reduced and the environment is protected
  • Determines the use of crop protection and fertiliser products as well as minimum and maximum rates
  • For rapeseed: The nutrient requirement is calculated by mapping before the vegetative rest period
  • Can be used at each stage of the crop types
  • More cost-effective than other active systems
  • Interfaces with all adjustable fertiliser spreaders, sprayers and other spreading equipment
  • Fully compatible due to manufacturer-independent connection to on-board computers via ISOBUS
  • Map overlay option
  • Variable number of sensor heads (2 or 4) enables it to be used for different purposes
  • Attach the sensor heads (2, 4 or 6) directly onto the fertiliser spreader or sprayer 
  • Dynamic calibration during transit
  • Active system with its own light source

  • Dynamic calibration during transit
  • Support for peer control standard

Site-specific farming with NEXT Farming

Use TalkingFields (TF) maps along with sensor technology from NEXT GreenSeeker by
NEXT Farming to optimise the use of inputs on your fields

Scarcely any plot of land is homogeneous and offers the same yield potential throughout. Divergent soil characteristics and having to meet ever stricter statutory requirements is challenging for farmers.
NEXT Farming provides the best solutions for site-specific farming in the form of TalkingFields (TF) maps and sensor technology from NEXT GreenSeeker. This also shows in practice. In a joint project, winter wheat was fertilised with nitrogen site-specifically and both systems achieved definite additional yields as well as slightly higher protein contents compared to similar fertilisation systems at the Quarnbek site. NEXT GreenSeeker in particular stood out for its definite increase in yield while spreading a minimal amount of nitrogen (Rückleben, Fachhochschule Kiel, Getreidemagazin 1/2019 (25th year)). The results prove that With NEXT Farming, you not only save on costs and ensure higher yields, you also meet the German Fertiliser Application Ordinance (DüV) requirements at the same time.
