Put All of Your Center Pivots On One Platform

Connecting your irrigation systems to the web shouldn’t be difficult and more importantly, shouldn’t require a different user interface for each brand of pivot or linear irrigation machine. That’s why the industry-leading AgSense®  Field Commander®  was designed with an emphasis on versatility. It’s compatible with all makes and models of pivots and control panels, so you can manage everything from one platform.

The Field Commander is installed at the end tower of the pivot. It has patented GPS technology to provide real-time information about its position and to enable precise control of the pivot’s speed, direction and more. Your favorite smart device is your bridge to all of these remote monitor and control options, and even when you’re not watching, customizable text message and email alerts can keep you informed the rest of the time.

With a résumé like that, it’s no wonder that AgSense is installed on more pivots than all competitive units combined.
