Precision Planting Systems FlowSense
Know your fertilization rate
Fertilization rates can vary and be different for each row. Standard visual systems do not show the operator whether variable fertilization is needed. FlowSense measures the levels for each row and displays the information in the cab.
Advantages
Know what's happening
We all want to know the truth about our equipment's performance. Even when it seems to be running well, or when a problem with unclear cause appears, it's essential to understand how the equipment is operating and how to make the right adjustment when needed. When it comes to fertiliser rates or the pump, pulsation can affect application rates and in most cases the source of the problem is unknown.
FlowSense gives you information
FlowSense tells you the amount of fertiliser needed on every row. This information is shown on the 20|20 in-cab display. So you know what rates are being applied on every row and can always react if a situation develops.
Switch to control
FlowSense measures the fertiliser rate applied on every row. Sometimes situations arise that require a change in the correction system. That's where vApplyHD comes in. vApplyHD is a control system that includes flow measurement, rate control and swath control. All of this can be configured in a single row-by-row section-control module. Learn how to solve the most common issues in fertiliser systems.

Precision Planting is an American company founded in 1993 by farmers Gregg and Cindy Sauder, driven by a desire to increase planter precision and achieve higher yields through exact seed placement. Their market adoption was rapid, as local farmers observed the benefits and purchased the equipment, thereby popularising precision planting technologies.
The company focuses on retrofitting: it does not manufacture standalone or complete planters, but instead develops sub-assemblies (sensors, metering systems, etc.) and offers solutions that can be integrated onto existing frames, allowing farmers to upgrade the planters they already use.
Acquired in 2017, Precision Planting is now part of the PTx brand, the result of the AGCO–Trimble partnership, offering retrofit and factory-fit solutions for brands such as Fendt, Massey Ferguson, and Valtra.
