RTK Network

In an effort to make RTK accuracy accessible to as many farmers as possible, the JLD-Laguë Group was the first agricultural equipment dealer to set up an RTK network in Eastern Canada. With 15 strategically positioned correction bases, the network covers most of the group’s operating territory. Maintenance and updates are performed every year to ensure optimal coverage.

Equipment optimization

Pogo Stick 

Pogo Stick analysis helps you evaluate your planter’s performance. When collecting data, an experienced technician will go to your place of business. Subsequently, using the Pogo Stick, this person will calculate: 

• The spacing between plants 
• Performance of emergence 
• Planted and nominal population 
• Doubles and gaps 
• Percentage of singulation 
• Seed release index 
• Percentage of proper placement 

Once the analysis is complete, we provide you with a report targeting areas for improvement on your planter. 

Equipment report 

To help you optimize the use of your equipment, our analysts examine the use you make of it. Then, they provide you with a report to help you identify costly trends. In addition, your equipment is compared to the average for the model, which allows you to situate yourself as to the use of your equipment.
