Nutrien Ag, John Deere Collaborate on Digital Data

Nutrien Ag Solutions Inc., a subsidiary of Nutrien Ltd., and John Deere jointly announced on Jan. 19 the release of advanced digital connectivity between the John Deere Operations Center™ and Nutrien Ag Solutions’ Digital Hub.

They said the connectivity enables both companies to better serve growers by optimizing logistics and enabling variable rate agronomic recommendations to be seamlessly transferred to their equipment for execution.

In addition, the two companies announced a multi-year commitment to deepen the integration and jointly develop streamlined solutions so that growers can more easily benefit from precision ag technology. Growers control the access level to the data in their John Deere Operations Center account and can share access with Nutrien Ag Solutions’ Digital Hub, where Nutrien crop consultants can create customized recommendations.

John Deere said its Operations Center PRO Dispatch is a complete dispatching and work-order management solution that is integrated with most leading retailer back-office systems. It allows fleet managers to view equipment and tender location and status in real time, analyze machine productivity, and provide data management services to growers.
