Not just for kids

Written by 

While young people have their faces glued to smartphones using the latest social media apps, remember many apps have potential to add value to tech-savvy farm businesses.

Case IH’s recently introduced mobile app gives users of its Advanced Farming System (AFS) products access to masses of information, explaining the basics and how to get the best from the systems.

The app contains around a 100 tutorials in PDF or video format covering topics such as installation, set-up and calibration of automated steering systems, and best use of mapping software. Freshly loaded on the system is a guide to the newly launched AFS Connect Telematics function.

The app can be downloaded free for smartphones and tablet PC’s with Android or Apple IOS via the normal channels. Search for Case IH AFS Academy.
