  • Patent number: 11416570
    Abstract: A method and a system for the process-related generation of agricultural data is disclosed. A server platform includes an input tool and a query tool, wherein the user uses the input tool to executes a process-related agricultural input routine, such as a documentation routine to document an agricultural process, or a planning routine for planning an agricultural process, and wherein the query tool is linked through IT to the input tool. The user provides agricultural process parameters in the input routine to the server platform. Further, the server platform includes data memory with query data comprising different lists of agricultural questions with boundary conditions associated therewith. The query tool compares the process parameters and the boundary conditions, and based on the comparison, the query tool selects a list of agricultural questions and queries the user about questions from the selected list.

  • Publication number: 20220067847
    Abstract: A system and method for networking a plurality of agricultural farms is disclosed. The system and method use a server platform, whereby the agricultural farms use at least one computer-supported administration system to plan and perform agricultural processes, and to administer required resources. The server platform has an input interface for input and/or receipt of selectable basic data of each of the farms connected to the server platform. The server platform has a data interface providing information on resources to perform the agricultural processes that are provided by a resource provider. The server platform evaluates the basic data transmitted by the administration system in order to aggregate a resource requirement of a plurality of agricultural farms. The server platform accounts for the aggregated resource requirements and the information from the resource provider, automatically selects a resource provider and transmits the offer corresponding to the aggregated resource requirement.

  • Patent number: 11145009
    Abstract: A method for supporting a user in an agricultural activity with a control arrangement that has a mobile device and a server application which communicates with the mobile device. The control arrangement executes an augmented reality routine in which a real-world image generated by a camera and at least one item of added information are displayed in a visually superimposed manner on the mobile device. The server application has a plurality of application modules with which a predefined agricultural scenario is associated, and an amount of added information is stored in the database for each agricultural scenario. The control arrangement automatically determines in which of the predefined agricultural scenarios the mobile device is situated, and a partial amount of the amount of added information stored in the database for the determined agricultural scenario is shown on the display depending on at least one object depicted in the real-world image.

  • Publication number: 20210233184
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for analyzing agricultural data using an analytical tool of a server program is disclosed. The server platform includes a receiving tool that continuously receives personalized raw data on agricultural work processes, with the raw data including usage data and business data from a plurality of agricultural data sources. An analyst can present an analytical query to the analytical tool, with the analytical query comprises analytical parameters. The analytical tool, based on the analytical parameters, selects part of the raw data, anonymizes it, and aggregates it into status data based on the analytical parameters. The status data relate to a current agricultural status of an area of agricultural production, which the analytical tool may provide to the analyst.

  • Publication number: 20210090160
    Abstract: A method for performing an agricultural service in which a server platform communicates with a user and with service providers. The server platform has a field file of field information about at least one agricultural field associated with the user. The server platform generates a service order based on the field information and on service instructions received from the user to perform an agricultural service with an order profile. The server platform generates service bids with a bid profile from service provider data of service providers. The server platform compares the order profile with the bid profiles, and suggests to the user one or more bids fitting the service order based on the degree of matching between the order profile and bid profiles. The server platform commissions the service provider of the selected bid to perform the service based on the user's selection of one of the service bids.
