flexibility to install apps, view descriptions and images, report
issues, connect with developer partners, and stay current with
on-demand updates. Users can search and find the apps most useful
to their farm operations, language and regional compliance
requirements.
"As we continue to add third-party apps on our TMX-2050 display,
we are providing farmers with more localized choices so they can
select the tools that best fit their machines, applications and
regional needs," said Pierre-Andre Rebeyrat, marketing director for
Trimble's Agriculture Division. "These apps can enable farmers to
obtain needed information more easily and quickly, leading to more
efficient management of their farm operations."
Every new TMX-2050 display solution includes wireless
connectivity allowing farmers to view ongoing field activities,
real-time commodity prices, real-time weather conditions to guide
irrigation and field deployment decisions, and other valuable task
information in the Connected Farm™ dashboard—without ever leaving
the machine cab. It also enables wireless data transfer of
as-applied maps and other field activities such as planting,
spraying or harvesting, simplifying the overall management and
transfer of farm data files.
