Growers use yield maps to study and manage variability in their fields and to generate report cards on their progress.

The 2630 displays and stores yield data in real time and is capable of wireless data transmission using John Deere data technologies. Integration to Trimble FMX and TMX displays has been available for some time.

It also offers agronomic benefits in allowing growers to track quality in storage back to the field. Reports can be reviewed or made available to shippers and buyers. Data can be used to study and report on efficiencies and traffic flow. RiteTrace is available as a stand-alone system but can also be purchased in combination with a RiteYield yield monitor. Optional ISOBUS compatibility is available for users who prefer to use their in- cab displays (e.g. John Deere 2630) to view and access the RiteTrace menus. Please visit for further details.
