Intuitive Navigation
Navigation of the FarmMate app is intuitive and straightforward. The main menu offers four choices: Agronomy Tips, Products, Dealers and News. The app provides useful insights on successfully growing the most widespread crops in the user’s area, such as corn, potatoes, rice and wheat. Each crop is explained through a series of card collections organised according to the field operation – tillage, planting, harvesting, and so on. The suggestions and tips provided are constantly updated by the New Holland team, and illustrated with photos, graphics and videos.
FarmMate also provides farmers with useful tools for their daily activities, such as a currency converter, details of promotions on spare parts and services available at their dealership, weather forecasts, and news about New Holland products and activities in their country.
