1 Field Rainfall Irrigation Fleet Plant Health & Scouting Soil 1

2 Overall Benefits/Advantages Use with all types of equipment, farms, crops, and farm size No more USB drives--saves time by providing wireless data transfer between vehicles operating in the same field or between the field and office Provides a complete farm-wide solution for data collection, sharing, and analysis Utilizes your data to increase yield, productivity, and efficiency WIRELESS DATA TRANSFER Field Rainfall Irrigation Fleet Plant Health & Scouting Soil 2

3 GETTING STARTED WITH THE DASHBOARD Field Rainfall Irrigation Fleet Plant Health & Scouting Soil Where do I start? Log in or create a new Connected Farm account at 3

4 Overview The dashboard provides a single location for viewing key information impacting your operation. It is customizable and accessible using most devices with an Internet connection. View Snap Shot of Fleet Locations and Status Field Tasks Field Boundaries & Scouting Maps Past 24 Hour Rainfall Weather Forecast & Doppler Radar Irrigation Pivots and Status Commodity Prices 4

5 FOR THE GROWER Field Rainfall Irrigation Fleet Plant Health & Scouting Soil Features Field Tasks o NEW! File Sync o NEW! Connected Farm Field App Precipitation Monitoring o NEW! RainWave Contour Map Irrigation Monitoring and Control o Connected Farm Irrigate App Field Boundaries & Scouting Data o Connected Farm Scout App PurePixel Precision Vegetation Health Solution 5

6 Field Tasks View yield data, variety maps, and other as-applied maps instantly as soon as jobs are completed Upload Trimble field data to your Connected Farm account using: o Office Sync wireless solution o NEW! File Sync USB utility solution Connected Farm Field App NEW! Connected Farm Field App Enter details about each field operation (tillage, planting, spraying, harvest, etc.). Select your field conditions and auto detect your weather information for chemical reporting. View all previously entered field records from your device or from other devices. Synchronize your app with your Connected Farm account to utilize the same client/farm/field, equipment, machinery, and personnel names. 6

7 Precipitation Monitoring Check rainfall totals accumulated over a 24-hour period from a virtual rain gauge View a graph of actual rainfall activity in 10-minute increments to gain a better understanding of the rainfall intensity NEW! View a map of rainfall variability for each field using RainWave Contour Map o Exportable as a shape file (*.shp) for third-party farm management solutions Irrigation Monitoring and Control Use the Irrigate-IQ precision irrigation solution to track water, fertigation, or effluent applications View irrigation system locations, pivot speed, status (on/off), current voltage, and more from the dashboard Create no spray and variable rate irrigation areas for applying the right amount of water in the right place 7

8 Connected Farm Irrigate App Monitor the status (on/off), direction, heading, pressure, voltage, and material applied Control the application schedule, start or stop, and the direction of each pivot Switch the type of material being dispersed (water/effluent/fertigation) Field Boundaries and Scouting Data Draw your field boundaries from Google imagery or import them using Trimble's TMX-2050, FmX or CFX-750 displays View field boundaries with fleet locations to help verify if operators are in the correct field Upload your field boundaries and scouting data from the Connected Farm Scout app 8

9 Connected Farm Scout App Compatible with most Android and Apple smartphones and tablets, including iphone and ipad Calculate areas (acres or hectares) and map field boundaries Switch between logging paths, points, and polygon areas Enter scouting attributes for pests, weeds or diseases and log the severity of problems and crop conditions Calculate nitrogen rates by using crop readings from the GreenSeeker handheld crop sensor PurePixel Precision Vegetation Health Solution Provide high precision source of vegetation health information to drive improved crop analysis Save time by targeting specific locations for crop scouting versus scouting the entire field Reduce economic losses by providing an early warning system for crop health Utilize PPVI (PurePixel Vegetation Index) maps for comparing crop health from one time period to the next o Exportable as a shapefile (*.shp) for third-party farm management solutions June July August 9

10 PurePixel Precision Vegetation Health Solution Uncalibrated Index (Example: NDVI) Weakest vegetation present Strongest vegetation present PurePixel Calibrated Index 1 60 Low crop vigor/ young crop Moderate crop vigor/ Moderate crop maturity 120 High crop vigor/ mature crop FOR THE ADVISOR Field Rainfall Irrigation Fleet Plant Health & Scouting Soil 10

11 Features NEW! Nutrient Management VRA Soil Information System (SIS) Solution NEW! Nutrient Management VRA Create variable rate application (VRA) prescription maps and easily share this information with the farmer or trusted advisor Upload soil sample data from standard lab formats and link the data to the soil sample location maps Select from a wide range of prebuilt formulas or create your own Export a completed prescription into a shapefile format (*.shp) that is compatible with most field displays 11

12 Soil Information System (SIS) Solution Assess detailed soil properties for each field such as soil texture, compaction, root zone depth, moisture retention and availability, and soil fertility View soil analysis for the top 48 inches Target precise sampling locations based on soil variability, sometimes reducing the number of samples required Soil Information System (SIS) Solution 12
