Solorrow, a German agri-tech company has launched an app for farmers to create prescription maps for precision farming based on satellite images.
The start-up company has recently entered a partnership with John Deere allowing its variable rate application maps to be shared with the John Deere Operations Center.
Farmers can now create variable rate application maps for fertilising and other field operations then share them wirelessly with John Deere’s Operation Center.

How it works
Solorrow offers a solution which allows users to quickly identify fields and their boundaries in a map view on their tablet or smartphone.
The selected areas can be then divided into different soil zones that act as the basis for fertiliser and application maps. Once these maps are sent to the operations centre, they can then be wirelessly sent to the appropriate tractor or machine. The in-cab display receives the data and provides the Isobus controlled fertiliser spreader or sprayer the site specific application rate based on its current position in the field.
John Deere said that this interaction with the Solorrow app not only has agricultural benefits, but also demonstrates that the smooth exchange of data between different manufacturers’ software solutions is possible and practical.
