Ag Leader Announces Hydraulic Down Force 8-Section Control

Ag Leader Technology today announced Hydraulic Down Force 8-Section Control for planters. The addition of 8-Section Control adds several new features to the company’s Hydraulic Down Force System. Row-by-row sensing allows the system to monitor and respond to the down force needs of each row, in order to account for frequent variations in field depth. The system also adds greater flexibility with up to eight sections of control and multiple configurations available.

Additionally, Ag Leader’s 8-Section Control provides Virtual Terminal capability through a new ISOBUS module. The module provides functionality with any Virtual Terminal capable in-cab display, allowing users to choose 1-4 sensors per channel, and ensuring cross-brand compatibility with the Hydraulic Down Force System. Hydraulic Down Force 8-Section Control will be available for order Fall 2014.
