07 6 Key Features of the WM-FieldForm 01 Single-Scraper Control: WM-FieldForm provides precise control over single scrapers, allowing farmers to shape field surfaces into optimal configurations for efficient water movement. 02 Precision-IQ Integration: It is the first water management system to leverage the PrecisionIQ field application in the powerful GFX-1260. This allows for improved visualization and faster auto-design features. 03 Enhanced GNSS Accuracy: The NAV-900 guidance controller ensures high-precision GNSS positioning, enhancing accuracy and uptime for field operations. 04 Topographic Survey Capabilities: Farmers can create detailed topographic surveys using RTK measurements, enabling accurate field mapping and design. 05 Multiplane Technology: This technology allows for the creation of optimized field surface drainage designs, defining primary and cross slopes, prescribed orientations, and preferred grades. 06 Dirt-Balancing Algorithms: Industry-leading algorithms minimize topsoil disturbance, ensuring sustainable landforming practices. Benefits of the WM-FieldForm WM-FieldForm is a game-changer for modern agriculture, offering unmatched precision, efficiency, and sustainability. It’s designed to help farmers achieve better water management, improve crop yields, and reduce maintenance costs, making it an essential tool for any modern farming operation. Importantly, noted Watkins, “There are cost savings realized from being able to form or maintain their fields on their own, without having to hire contractors to manage landforming projects.” WM-FieldForm helps control water movement into, out of, and within fields, reducing soil erosion and nutrient leaching. By optimizing field surfaces, Watkins said that the system can improve crop yields by up to 30 percent. As well, because the system streamlines the landforming process—from surveying and design to execution and verification—it saves the operator both time and resources. There are also savings to be realized thanks to the WM-FieldForm system, which is able to be utilized by existing tractor equipment, such as the GFX-1260 display and NAV-900. More on that below.
