Video: CLAAS | 3A – Advanced Automation and Autonomy – for efficient campaigns.

Together with AgXeed and AMAZONE, CLAAS is presenting a visionary concept that combines autonomous field work with digital logistics planning.??

3A stands for the holistic automation of agricultural processes, in which autonomous machines, implements and logistics systems are digitally networked with one another. The aim is to plan, coordinate and dynamically control the entire process chain in advance, for example for sowing, fertilising or plant protection. This results in adaptive, just-in-time organised processes in which resources are available exactly when and where they are needed. ??

The core is interoperable communication between digital platforms such as CLAAS connect and myAMAZONE operations, which is standardised by the AEF Agricultural Interoperability Network (AgIN). 3A illustrates how autonomous and highly automated systems can be combined to form an efficient overall solution.
