"If you can't measure it, you can't manage it." Everyone wants to manage well, especially high value vegetable and root crops. RiteYield provides the data you need to optimize your returns.

RiteYield technology from Greentronics now makes it possible to install an affordable weighing system in nearly any harvester with a conveyor belt. To calculate yield data, the weight of the crop is measured as it passes over sensors in the conveyor. Yield data is combined with GPS data to create a complete yield map.

The RiteYield system is designed with the installer and end-user in mind. It includes just a few components so installation and set-up can be completed in a short time. With a few calibration steps and a connection to Trimble or AgLeager GPS and data logging equipment, the system is ready to collect yield data.

 

Features:

• Collect and display yield data, as well as individual load weights, and running totals for bins, fields, varieties and test plot areas.
• Quick calibration. Tare calibration is very simple and easily repeated as needed.
• Adaptable.  This system can be adapted to fit conveyors with belted chain or rubber belts.
• Durable.  Well designed components will stand the test of time and require little maintenance.
• Tilt compensation option. For  operating in hilly fields.
• In-Line Conveyor Scale option.
  The RiteYield system includes all the components needed for an in-line weighing system. Between harvest seasons, the yield monitor can be installed in a truck loader or other conveyor and so work double duty.

RITEYIELD POTATO YIELD MAP

 

• Yield data in this map show approximately 68 out of  the 75 total acres produced yields at or above the economical break-even point.  The remainder produced yields too low for positive net returns. Such details are valuable to growers for decisions on a whole range of inputs such as fertilizer, lime, weed and disease control, and irrigation.

• Close-up of roller mount in a potato harvester; Load cells are mounted to brackets and support rollers under the belt to weigh crops on the belt.

•  Controller with sealed keypad and bright display to show harvest data and to navigate the simple menu system.

Starting at just $5490.00!!

• Shaft sensor picking up rotation speed from a small magnet clamped to the shaft. To calculate accurate yield data, the system needs to know the conveyor speed as it varies with PTO rpm or oil flow.
