      Trimble launched Farmer Core, a new entry-level Trimble Agriculture (Ag) Software subscription that helps enable farmers to connect all aspects of their farm operation. Available online and on any mobile device, Farmer Core is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) that integrates machine-generated data from ag displays to simplify farm setup and streamline farm operations.

      Farmer Core is an addition to the Trimble Connected Farm solution, a suite of ag applications covering all aspects of modern agricultural management.  Trimble Connected Farm enables growers to perform critical farm work smarter, faster and more cost-effectively. Through universal vehicle and implement integration, data transfer and analysis as well as the ability to leverage Trimble’s satellite-delivered positioning correction services, farmers can connect as much or as little of their operation as they choose, with options for expanding and upgrading as desired. In addition, Farmer Core, Farmer Fit, and Farmer Pro subscriptions enable users to work with precision ag data in real time, including data imported via Application Program Interfaces (APIs) from third-party displays.

      “Today, farmers often struggle with how they manage guidance lines. When they’re set up on one display or in the office, operators have to share these with other displays via USB. It’s a clunky process,” said Trimble Agriculture Business Solutions General Manager Craig Hiemstra. “Farmer Core, which leverages AutoSync, takes this solution to the next level and helps our customers move faster and reduce mistakes, saving both time and money.”
