FARM MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
20210378161 · 2021-12-09 ·

Described herein is a farm management system and related apparatus and operations including providing environmental monitoring and control systems, tracking seed sources, managing cultivation, growth, and harvest, improving enclosure operations, and managing system data. Example farm management systems may include a physical growing unit, a capacity control circuit structured to interpret a growing capacity description, and a growth support circuit structured to determine a planting instruction value in response to the growing capacity description. The physical growing unit may be responsive to the planting instruction value to initiate a growing support operation.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PRECISE DISTRIBUTION OF FLUIDIC AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES
20220201930 · 2022-06-30 ·

A liquid metering system for an agricultural implement is modular, having one or more metering pumps for each crop row. The motors and pumps are individually controlled for precise application of the liquid input and are preferable electrically driven. A controller is configured to send commands including both positional and time components to the motors. The motors respond to the commands by changing in position, e.g., an angular position, across the given time.

Smart sensor system for seeding implement

An agricultural planting or seeding implement that includes a ground engaging tool that forms a trench in a field. The ground engaging tool includes a blade that forms the trench. A first conduit couples to the blade. The first conduit deposits agricultural product in the field. A sensor couples to the ground engaging tool. The sensor generates a signal indicative of a soil property of the field.

VERTICAL FARM SEEDING APPARATUS AND METHOD
20220192077 · 2022-06-23 ·

A seeding apparatus for seeding agricultural seeds, seedlings and/or clones into a manufactured growth media of an indoor hydroponic growth system. The seeding apparatus including a media strip supply line configured to supply a quantity of consumable media strip for positioning within a linear aperture of a manufactured growth media, a depth gauge configured to fold the consumable media strip into a first part and a second part with a fold positioned therebetween, and to force the fold towards a bottom of the linear aperture of the manufactured growth media with the first part and the second part of the consumable media strip residing against walls defined by the linear aperture, and a seed supply line configured to introduce a metered quantity of agricultural seeds, seedlings and/or clones into the folded, consumable media strip.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TREATING INDIVIDUAL SEEDS WITH LIQUID CROP INPUTS DURING THE PLANTING PROCESS

A system for dispensing liquid agricultural products with seed includes an agricultural product supply system configured to dispense agricultural products. The system includes a seed tube for introducing seed. A tube-mounted nozzle is positioned on the seed tube for introducing liquid agricultural product into the seed tube. A gaseous fluid line is in fluid connection to a source of gaseous fluid. A gaseous fluid bubble generation assembly is in fluid communication with the gaseous fluid line. The gaseous fluid bubble generation assembly is configured to generate bubbles. The gaseous fluid bubble generation assembly is arranged and constructed so that when the gaseous fluid from the gaseous fluid line is passed therethrough bubbles are generated and agglomerated when the gaseous fluid encounters the liquid agricultural product within the seed tube.

Fertilizer and depth guide means with trailing in-line seeder

A seed drill having a frame, to which at least one seeding coulter and a fertiliser coulter arranged upstream of the seeding coulter in a working direction are connected. The seeding coulter and the fertiliser coulter are each assigned depth control.
