Set up your New Holland combine harvester with the Grain Loss Calculator

Grain Loss Calculator, the app that optimizes your combine harvester


New Holland Agriculture has launched the Grain Loss Calculator smartphone app to help farmers optimize their combine harvester settings in order to increase its efficiency and productivity. The app was developed to assist farmers while they use their combine harvester, regardless of its make and model.

Lars Skjoldager Sørensen, Harvesting Equipment Manager, said: ?This new app is an example of the attention New Holland pays to its customers and of the resources deployed to help farmers by simplifying their work and maximizing their efficiency. We developed the app with all farmers in mind - and not only owners of New Holland combine harvesters - because we must work hand in hand to achieve a common goal: sustainable and efficient agriculture that does more with less.?

A simple and quick calculation to optimize your combine harvester settings for maximum yield


With the Grain Loss Calculator app, farmers can determine their combine harvester's grain loss in three steps. It's simple and quick! Enter the make of your combine harvester, as well as the width of the cutter bar and of the cleaning shoe. Then select the crop type from the 30 types offered and enter the corresponding yield. Finally, enter the quantity of grains counted on a limited area.

The app instantly calculates your grain loss, expressing the result as a percentage and in kilograms per hectare.

Optimizing your combine harvester settings with the Harvest Excellence app


After displaying your combine harvester's grain loss, the Grain Loss Calculator app provides a link to New Holland's Harvest Excellence app, which will help you optimize your combine harvester settings by taking soil and crop conditions into account. It also features a troubleshooting assistant that will guide the user step by step to further optimize their combine harvester settings.

The Grain Loss Calculator app is available on iOS and Android operating systems on the App Store and Google Play.
