ISOBUS Green System

ISOBUS Green project: Landini’s choice

With a view to making the most of this digital technology and applying it in environments other than the open field, Landini collaborated with the ISOBUS Green project of the IDEAgri Network, which aims to connect the tractor to implements that aren’t electrified.

The IDEAgri network promotes the introduction of ISOBUS in the world of specialised agriculture in order to make this technology increasingly inclusive, as well as open to all implements and all types of work; preventive, able to monitor working hours and maintenance needs of all implements without differences between electronic and mechanical; and proactive, enabling communication with the Universal Terminal that’s always on and which ensures that the farmer work is performed with maximum efficiency but also minimal consumption and emissions, thereby saving precious resources..

The solutions are simple and the benefits concrete:

• For the farmer, using the resources already on the ISOBUS tractor every day means working more efficiently, reducing costs and consumption;
• For the environment, involving the operator and ensuring efficiency in all processes means avoiding unnecessary waste and pollution.

Even in the case of speciality tractors such as the Landini REX4 and implements for orchards and vineyards, the project aims to make mechanical implements communicate via ISOBUS, thus “upgrading” them.

Another objective of this system is to limit energy expenditures and preserve the environment by decreasing the impact that these implements have on the environment.

Finally, considering that many farmers today have access to a large amount of data through various digital solutions but aren’t able to interpret and exploit them correctly, the ISOBUS Green project is intended to utilise existing technology to increase the accuracy of information relating to soil tillage.

Even in contexts where the technology is perceived as difficult and inaccessible (e.g. vineyards and orchards), the ISOBUS system is made accessible and allows companies to work at maximum efficiency with their implements.
