Tom Hawthorne's smart farming journey: for maximum efficiency.
Flawborough Farms has been using digital solutions from CLAAS since 2006. They first started using CLAAS connect in spring 2024. Since then, they have had a much clearer overview of all the various machines on their substantial acreage and have been able to manage the logistics far more efficiently. What's more, digital data collection reduces the operators' workload and minimises the chances of manual error.
"Yield maps are beautifully presented in CLAAS connect."
Tom Hawthorne
Farm manager
Tom Hawthorne appreciates the close cooperation with CLAAS and his local dealership. Through direct exchange, all parties involved gain a better understanding of the farm's needs and the functions of CLAAS connect can then be tailored accordingly. This also drives the development of the app.
After a short period of familiarisation, Tom Hawthorne can't imagine farming without CLAAS connect. His farm now has rapid access to all key data. The novelty of wireless data transfer is a particular benefit – for even more efficiency.
This is how Tom Hawthorne uses CLAAS connect:
1. Document harvest data automatically in CLAAS connect.
3. Clear overview of machinery fleet and their operating hours
2. Access precise and clearly structured yield maps in CLAAS connect.
