Two speakers explain how the new 700S Combine uses CombineAdvisor technology with Activision cameras to automatically adjust settings and reduce wheat losses from white caps, improving crop yield and farm revenue.

Activision cameras see white caps while harvesting wheat. Combine Advisor solves the problem by making adjustments, such as increasing rotor speed and closing down the concaves. White caps and wheat would cause a 3% dock.
Today. I'm getting 540 for my wheat. On a regular day, I can usually get 23 acres done in an hour at my typical 65 bushels per acre, so I get $8,073 per acre. Whitecaps are tough, though, and I've been docked before. At 3%, I'm only getting $5.24 per bushel, and even if I harvest just as fast, I'm only getting $7834. Wow. I could save $2 just on white caps.
