One day, CNH Precision Farming Specialist Pieterjan Maenhout got a unique phone call from a customer wondering about the possibilities of a Raven GPS system. The customer asked, “What are the possibilities of a Raven GPS system? Should we spray with a task card or not?”
Why? “The customer would like to propose to his girlfriend with a text in a field.” With this special task in mind, Pieterjan got to work. He sat down with the customer to get a plan in place, drawing the text on a prescription map. Then, he sent it to the Raven GPS system. For this project, Pieterjan used:
- The CR12 display
- RS1 3-in-1 autoguidance technology
- Task Controller and prescription map unlock
- RTK+ network
Over the course of three weeks, Pieterjan helped spray the customer’s field with individual nozzle control that automatically sprayed the requested letters and shapes. All of this got the field in perfect condition for a breathtaking proposal.
When the field was ready, the customer and his soon-to-be fiancée took to the sky to see the result. Watch below to see how it turned out!
Love was definitely in the air as she quickly saw the message in the crops — and she said yes!
Thank you to our customer and Pieterjan for sharing this precious moment with us. Here’s to many more years of happiness and precision farming!
