 ALMACO
will display their new technologies in planting, harvesting and
seed processing equipment at an upcoming field day on June 24th
in Nevada, Iowa.
ALMACO will be demonstrating its new Windows-based, precision
planter control system, The SEEDPRO 360. This new
operating system with touch screen interaction allows
researchers to quickly and easily calibrate, operate, and change
plot and field specifications with minimal inputs and
adjustments. In addition it has a customized performance
monitoring system that continuously reviews seed planting
performance and data for further analysis. ALMACO will also
demonstrate its Field Mapping Software that can be integrated
into the 360 software. The Mapping software allows the client to
preset desired plot lengths and seed populations in the office
before planting.
ALMACO’s patented Global Positioning System (GPS) plot
tripping technology marketed as SKYTRIP will be
demonstrated in multiple applications in the field allowing
users the ability to see the future of research plot planting.
ALMACO has developed a cable-less tripping system for use
in the plot research arena that uses GPS information to
accurately plant research plots when used in conjunction with
their planting equipment. This user friendly technology provides
greater efficiency during the planting process with less moving
parts on the planters and a safer working environment. It can be
used with both cone type planters, indexer planters, ALMACO
SeedPro planter and is also available as a retrofit on existing
planters.
ALMACO will also have walk through displays of the Automated
Processing Line that includes the new MAIZER ear corn
sheller. Along with the new Split CR940 split combine,
Transgenic SPC40 Combine, 8 Row SeedPro 360 Planter and more!
ALMACO will have all technologies available for hands-on
operation in the field from 10am to 3pm
on June 24th. Lunch will be
provided free of charge. Registered* clients will also receive
