Agri-Brink - Soil Compaction Solution

虽然养活不断增长的全球人口的挑战是21世纪可持续生活的关键目标，但由于日益强大的农用车辆/工具，土壤压实的影响在加拿大被忽视。有必要开发一种土壤压实软件解决方案，以增强像AgriBrink这样的设备制造商及其农业技术经销商网络的现有努力，使农民能够获得与他们自己的田地相关的压实信息。AgriBrink是基于对土壤压实研究的投资和随后专利技术的开发而成立的。他们在加拿大制造的“轮胎压力调节”（TPA）系统允许农民扩大他们的应用窗口，减少压实，保护土壤结构，降低燃料消耗，限制过度滑移造成的时间损失，减少因压实造成的产量损失。Conestoga研究团队将审查农业技术相关领域的现有和类似解决方案，并开发基于云的原型解决方案，最终使农民能够跟踪其田地的土壤压实状况，使用配备现代ISOBUS的农用车辆的数据，为分析和可视化状况提供基础。

While the challenge of feeding a growing global, population with diminishing, productive agricultural lands is a key objective of sustainable living in the 21st Century, the impact of soil compaction due to increasingly robust farm vehicles/tools is going unnoticed within Canada. There is a need to develop a soil compaction software solution that enhances existing efforts of equipment manufacturers like AgriBrink and their network of agricultural technology dealers to empower farmers with compaction information relevant to their own fields. AgriBrink was founded based on an investment in soil compaction research and the subsequent development of patented technology. Their made-in-Canada "Tire Pressure Adjustment" (TPA) system allows farmers to widen their application windows, reduce compaction, protect soil structure, lower fuel consumption, limit time loss caused by excess slippage and reduce yield loss due to compaction. The Conestoga research team will review existing and similar solutions from related areas of agricultural technology, and develop prototype cloud-based solutions that will ultimately allow farmers to track soil compaction conditions on their fields, using data from modern ISOBUS equipped farm vehicles to provide the basis for analysis and visualization of the condition.
