The new FendtONE platform merges tractor and office into one unit. “Fieldwork has always been completely separate from office work. Even though the two activities are interrelated, they happen separately and are carried out on different systems,” explains Robbie Hall, product marketing manager for Gold Harvesting, AGCO Africa.
FendtONE is the first holistic operating system on the market. It fuses the on-board and off-board world by means of wireless data transfer. Features include local and round-the-clock data management on different devices, identical operating logic on the machine and in the office (simply put, once you have learnt to use the one, you can use the other), an optimised work process, and an open system that ensures future access and connection to other systems, such as Financial Management Information Systems.
WORKING TOGETHER
FendtONE off-board complements the existing applications on the machine with practical functions. For example, Fendt Task Doc records agronomic data and output figures during fieldwork (on-board), enhanced with the job planning and management function (off-board). This means tractor and attachment data, already exported and recorded by the machine, is available instantly for reports.
This enables farmers and contractors to use their time more efficiently and productively.
