John Deere Implements the Harvest Identification

In order to help cotton growers capture, store and retrieve information about their crop for use by the gin, John Deere has implemented the Harvest Identification. The system gets rid of the manual module – tagging method, provides easy - to – retrieve and store documentation and improves the way of tracking and delivery of the modules to the gin.
Harvest Identification has already been used with the John Deere 7760 Self-Propelled Cotton Picker, equipped with a Green StarTM 2 2600 or GreenStar TM 3 2630 Display and RFID tags embedded in the round module wrap. The system documents module information relevant to the ginning process, including the client, farm, field, module serial number, harvest date and time: all collected in a one document. Cotton, the implemented system, reads the RFID serial numbers that are embedded in the module wrap and then transfers the information to the Application Controller 1120. The device collects the information and at the same time displays the module count and the serial number, storing the information simultaneously as a .txt file within the File Server on the display. Has the information been collected, it can be pulled off the display via data card or USB drive and then sent to the cotton gin.
The above solution gives the growers the ability to harvest cotton uninterrupted, without the necessity to tag modules manually. Growers who have tried the system so far say that it helps them to save time and simplifies the record keeping and tracking of modules.

Salt – resistant rice under tests

Hot news coming straight from London: scientists are doing some lab tests on the salt-resisting rice species. They came up with the idea right after giant tsunami wave hit paddy fields in Japan and left behind a salty sludge.

It is common for farmlands accumulating salt to have lower crop yields which may threaten food supply, as rice provides nourishment for the countless masses of people. The scientists claim that the method (called MutMap) is simple: they work with cultivars favored by farmers and already adapted to local conditions. Owing to the MutMap method new crop varieties can be developed in the nearest future, possibly within a year.
The new method is said to improve the rice productivity all over the world as much of the crop plantations tend to have a high level of salinity. MutMap method uses the speed at which sequencing can be done in order to screen plan mutants for valuable traits. The results are very promising and the plant scientists hope to be successful and their findings will serve to the benefit of the mankind.

And the Award Goes Massey Ferguson

The Massey Ferguson company has every possible reason to be proud. Recently, its MF7624 Dyna-VT model of tractor has won the Golden Tractor for Design award in the 2012 Tractor of the Year competition.
The award is presented every year by the jury of journalists working for 22 magazines, considered to be the European leaders in handling farming issues. Manufacturers have to refrain from entering the competition. The only way they stand a chance for the award is to be nominated by one of the judges.
According to Richard Markwell, the company’s vice president and managing director for Europe, Africa and Middle East, the whole event was very competitive this year as there were quite a few new tractors launched on the market in order to meet follow the new Stage 3b exhaust regulations.
The 7640 model is one of a four- model range spanning 185 to 235 hp (210 to 260 boosted) and equipped with a new, ergonomical cab and a 7.4 – litre AGCO SISU Power e3 second-generation SCR engine. Not only does the cab interior have high visibility, but also it is easy to operate owing to a new layout and simplified joysticks.
