Rantizo Connects AcreConnect Software with John Deere

IOWA CITY, IA  – Rantizo, the largest drone spraying network in the country, announces its proprietary AcreConnect productivity software is now connected with the John Deere Operations Center through the John Deere API services. This connection allows Rantizo to significantly enhance the value of AcreConnect by enabling spray drone operators to easily share application maps with customers on Operations Center.

“AcreConnect is the only provider of as applied and as covered maps for both DJI and XAG spray drones, so we are excited to bring this valuable data to growers and retailers through John Deere Operations Center,” said Mariah Scott, CEO. “We’re building a software ecosystem that makes it easier for our operators to deliver top-notch service to their customers.”

Using AcreConnect with Operations Center allows operators to share ‘As Covered’ and ‘As Applied’ Maps directly with customers. This ensures that spray records are included with other application information and field data, giving growers and retailers a more comprehensive view of their operations. This holistic approach to data management facilitates better decision-making, leading to improved operational efficiency and productivity.

“Connecting AcreConnect to the John Deere Operations Center truly supports our promise to deliver better service,” said Jeff Holman, Chief Product Technology Officer (CPTO). “Both independent operators and those at retail locations, stand to gain significant value from their ability to share application data directly to a grower’s account.”

Video: Finding a Balance of Innovation and Regulation - Dr. Peter Facchini

Regulations help markets and industry exist on level playing fields, keeping consumers safe and innovation from going too far. However, incredibly strict regulations can stunt innovation and cause entire industries to wither away. Dr. Peter James Facchini brings his perspective on how existing regulations have slowed the advancement of medical developments within Canada. Given the international concern of opium poppy’s illicit potential, Health Canada must abide by this global policy. But with modern technology pushing the development of many pharmaceuticals to being grown via fermentation, is it time to reconsider the rules?

Dr. Peter James Facchini leads research into the metabolic biochemistry in opium poppy at the University of Calgary. For more than 30 years, his work has contributed to the increased availability of benzylisoquinoline alkaloid biosynthetic genes to assist in the creation of morphine for pharmaceutical use. Dr. Facchini completed his B.Sc. and Ph.D. in Biological Sciences at the University of Toronto before completing Postdoctoral Fellowships in Biochemistry at the University of Kentucky in 1992 & Université de Montréal in 1995.
