l
Concentration % : The ratio of the active ingredient in the
product being applied (nitrogen if
Nitrogen Content based
Mass/Area
selected in output configuration, see page 14).
l
Minimum Rate
: The minimum rate of the active ingredient that
should be applied relative to the amount of biomass detected.
l
Maximum Rate
: The maximum rate of the active ingredient that
should be applied relative to the amount of biomass detected.
Note
: To set the rate based on the desired amount of total
product (as opposed to active ingredient), set the concentration to
100%.
l
Fallback Rate
: The application rate that the software should
default to if unable to obtain a valid reading from either sensor.
This can happen if no biomass is detected.
l
Harvest volume : The estimated per hectare yield of the field.
4.4.3. Configuring Tomeba North prescription
Tomeba North prescription type uses a nitrogen application rate that
corresponds with the average CropSpec value for the field to vary the
applied nitrogen rate as the CropSpec value increases and decreases.
To configure Tomeba North prescription type, you need to determine
the average CropSpec reading for the field (this figure is entered into
Crop Sense R ). To collect the reading, drive through the part of the
field that represents the best average sample for the entire field. Refer
to Recording CropSpec readings, page 19 for details on recording
average CropSpec readings. Enter the following data values to
complete the configuration:
