GreenStar Rate Controller

The GreenStar Rate Controller allows the GreenStar 3 2630 Display, 4600/4200 CommandCenter Display, and 4640/4240 Universal Display to integrate with anhydrous ammonia (NH3) applicators, such as the John Deere 2510 Series of nutrient applicators, self-propelled sprayers, liquid manure applicators, liquid fertilizer applicators, and many pull-type sprayers to accomplish the following:


  • Automatic rate control
  • Field documentation
  • Map-based prescriptions
  • John Deere Section Control (activation required)

In addition, the GreenStar Rate Controller can also be used to provide John Deere Section Control for planters.



The GreenStar Rate Controller enables John Deere Section Control on machines with sectional capabilities, including:
  • Pull-type sprayers
  • Non-John Deere self-propelled sprayers
  • Liquid fertilizer systems
 
John Deere Section Control turns on and off implement or sprayer boom sections based on global positioning system (GPS) and field coverage, in an effort to reduce overlap in headland areas and oddly shaped fields.
 
The benefits of John Deere Section Control are as follows:
  • Reduces input costs
  • Reduces operator fatigue
  • Enhances land stewardship
