WINTERSTEIGER's partner, Juniper
Systems, completed and tested the enhancement of the existing
HarvestMaster® modules in 2007. As the outcome of the field
tests carried out by WINTERSTEIGER in 2007 was very positive, it
will now be possible from 2008 to supply all machines with the
new harvest data collection system. The new harvest data
collection system consists of the field research software (FRS®)
and of the likewise revamped hardware components.
More detailed information may be obtained from the
Products section.
