I think you are right can't see they will want all that agro with a £150K sprayerThe other option is to use the x20 for your spray control and sell the ag leader, that would def work as it can do all section switching, rate controlling, auto steer, vra etc but i suspect they will want to retain the agleader.
I am using both yara N-Sensor and AgLeader optrex , i have used the N-Sensor for 5 years naw and the AgLeader optrex for the first time this season, i am undecided witch is the better system for the actual she feeing of N in the crop being scanned, The N-Sensor is A grate of tool and would be fantastic if it was ISO, but the X20 that works the N-Sensor is the only gripe I have with that system, in my opinion it is the most temperamental platform I have had to use in a long time, it certainly Carnot come close to the AgLeader, The AgLeader system is match simpler to use and seems more "farmer friendly" in the ease of use bracket compared to the X20,
Are you still using the Optrx sensors ? I just wondered how you use them, ie are they on the front of a tractor with a spreader on, or on a sprayer doing liquid, how many sensors you use and what modelling system it uses to determine rates. Thanks.Yes run them for 4 full seasons on 5th and really pleased with them. Worked straight out the box and really straight forward to use. We run in conjunction with KRM spreader but will work with our sprayer as fitted with Agleader controller. What else would you like to know?
