Additionally, Telemetria Stara counts on integrations with ERP systems to improve farm management. Another new feature is the Telemetria Stara Application, which enables access to all the information easily and fast on the cell phone besides providing reports and alerts.

Zero Crop Damage

The Zero Crop Damage is an exclusive Stara technology. It performs sowing with automatic row-by-row shut-off where the sprayer and spreader will further pass over. It provides seed savings of up to 4% for the farmer. It depends on the size of the self-propelled machine booms and the width of the tires. The No Crop Damage is available on all Stara planters with Row-by-Row Shut-Off System, and the entire operation process is through software.
