Exploring The Intelligence Behind John Deere Connected Support

Jan 17, 2019

The importance of agronomy continues to grow, and as it does, more John Deere customers are turning to connected support to gain further insight into their work. John Deere offers connected support to its customers specifically to provide a closer look at everything from soil to machinery on the go.

Let’s take a moment to examine how John Deere connected support can help with field management and ensure that producers are making the most of their time out in the field.

Machine Monitoring

One of the biggest benefits of connecting a machine to John Deere is that customers can monitor alerts from their machine remotely. This means that they do not need to be sitting in the cab to gain insight into its diagnostics and make sure that everything is running smoothly.

Monitor Fuel Level and Idle Time

Fuel levels and idle time can also be monitored from afar when a John Deere machine is connected. This gives operators the information they need to ensure that their machines are being utilized as efficiently as possible.

Dealer Connectivity

When a piece of Deere equipment is getting connected support, this means that dealers can quickly access and monitor alerts coming from this machine. In the event of a problem, they can help diagnose the issue at hand and get equipment up and running as quickly as possible. Dealer connectivity also means that software updates can be easily applied from the dealership as needed on the go. In the event of troubleshooting, a dealer can provide operators with insight from afar and help them reduce downtime as well.

JDLink Connect

Agronomic data from in-cab displays can be used outside of equipment through JDLink Connect. JDLink Connect allows operators to connect to their machines when they’re away from the field. With this asset, operators get a steady, automatic flow of agronomic data between all of their devices and machines. As the importance of agronomy continues to grow, tools like JDLink Connect are making life easier in a number of ways for operators when they can’t be out in the field.

Video: Is China Buying US Soybeans + USDA Nov 14th Crop Report could be “Game Changing”

After a week of a U.S./China trade truce, markets/trade is skeptical that we have not seen a signed agreement nor heard much from China or seen any details. There are rumors that China is buying soybean futures & not the physical. Trust in Trump?
12 MMT of U.S. soybean purchases by China by year-end is better than 0 but we all need to give it more time and give it a chance to unfold. China did lower the tariffs on Ag and is buying U.S. wheat and sorghum.
U.S. supreme court could rule against Trumps tariffs, but the Trump administration does have a plan B.
U.S. government shutdown is now the longest in history at 38 days.
But despite a U.S. government shutdown we will be getting a USDA November crop report next Friday and it could be “game changing.” If the USDA provides a bullish surprise with lower U.S. corn and soybean yields and ending stocks that are lower than expected both corn and soybean futures will break out above their ceilings at $4.35/bu and $11.35/bu respectively.
The funds continued their selling in live and feeder cattle futures on continued fears that the Trump administration want to lower U.S. beef prices. The fundamentals have not changed, only market psychology has.
Stocks markets continue to worry about a weak U.S. job market, but you can blame ChatGPT for that. In the future, we will have a more efficient, productive and growing economy with a higher unemployment rate until we have more skilled AI workers.
After 34 new record highs in the S & P 500 and 124 new records in the NASDAQ in 2025 we are back to a correction and investor profit taking as AI valuations may have gotten too stretched near-term ahead of NVDA’s 3rd quarter earnings announcement on Nov. 19th. But this is not an AI bubble.

It has rained in South America in the last 7 days, but both the American and European models agree that Central Brazil remains dry in the next 14-days!
