Monsanto to divest Precision Planting to John Deere
Deere & Company and The Climate Corporation, a subsidiary of
Monsanto Company, signed definitive agreements for Deere to acquire
the Precision Planting LLC equipment business and to enable exclusive
near real-time data connectivity between certain John Deere farm equipment
and the Climate FieldView platform.
According to Monsanto, the agreements represent the industry’s first
and only near real-time in-cab wireless connection to John Deere equipment
by a third party.
“To maximize the value of digital agriculture, farmers need solutions
for simple and seamless collection of in-field agronomic data,” says
Mike Stern, The Climate Corporation president and chief operating officer.
“As a result of these milestone agreements, farmers will experience
the fastest, most frequent and highest resolution third-party connectivity
between John Deere’s equipment and the Climate FieldView platform.”
