Retrofit Yield Monitor
& Automatic Yield Maps
Easy, Affordable, Automatic
Simple, Affordable, Automatic Yield Maps
If precision farming is in your future, or something you already do, a yield map is the single most important piece of data there is. It is the key input to next year’s agronomy plan and the current year’s report card.
We make it easy and affordable for farmers to generate yield maps. Our retrofit yield monitor can be user-installed quickly on any combine. The FarmTRX Mobile App displays live harvest data & uploads automatically to our web-platform. The FarmTRX Web App immediately generates high-quality yield maps. Easily view your yield maps, share them with your agronomist, or export to other farm management software. FarmTRX treats all data as confidential, we do not share or sell your yield data.

After harvesting, use your phone/tablet to wirelessly upload yield data to the cloud – no memory cards required. Your yield maps will be ready as soon as you go online.
