AGCO Launches New AgCommand Integration with Raven Technology

AGCO has developed a new AgCommand integration with Raven Industries’ Slingshot system, providing growers the ability to sync their fleet and data management tools together via the AgCommand website.

AgCommand is AGCO’s telematics and asset management tool that offers complete fleet management with machine performance reports, wireless communication, theft recovery and a Web-based application for easy access to data. Slingshot combines mobile wireless connectivity with online tools and precision ag hardware.

Allowing the two technologies to communicate through a unique application programming interface (API) will ensure that rate and location information will be visible to the grower in the AgCommand user interface.

“The ability to integrate AgCommand with Raven Slingshot is the result of Fuse Technologies, AGCO’s global initiative to provide farmers with seamless integration and connectivity across their operations,” says Matt Rushing, vice president, product management, global ATS and EFG. “Fuse enables farmers to integrate their AGCO equipment and precision agriculture technology with offerings from service providers including Raven, also a key provider of Viper Pro application control systems.”

“We’ve had a great relationship with AGCO for many years, and this API implementation is another example of our companies working together to help farmers make better use of their data and fleet management tools, ultimately increasing efficiencies and helping them to make important decisions in their operations year over year,” says Matt Burkhart, vice president and general manager for Raven Industries Applied Technology Division.

In addition to implementing the Slingshot API, application equipment such as AGCO’s RoGator and TerraGator can now be ordered Slingshot-ready, making it even simpler for growers to achieve a connected cab in the field and a user-friendly way to manage their operation logistics with AgCommand.

More information about Fuse Technologies and AGCO’s new connected strategy is available online, as is the opportunity to purchase a one-time unlock for access to the Slingshot API and AgCommand via a Slingshot Field Hub.
