Cojali will participate one more year in AEF FALL PLUGFEST 2024, one of the most important events of the year in terms of agricultural technology development based on the ISOBUS communication standard. This time, the event will take place from 16 to 20 September 2024 at the Savoia Hotel in Bologna (Italy).

One of the main missions is to improve the compatibility of electrical and electronic components among manufacturers in the agricultural sector, as well as to resolve any possible compatibility issues that may arise. In addition, AEF encourages the development and implementation of new technologies, as it is a meeting point for companies in the sector.

ISO 11783 standard, better known as ISOBUS, has established itself internationally as the communication protocol par excellence. With the main objective of ensuring compatibility between tractors and implements, its implementation has been one of the biggest challenges for companies in this sector. However, they are aware of the importance of ensuring the optimal operation of one single and standardised system, and of achieving interoperability between products from different manufacturers.

The AEF FALL PLUGFEST 2024 is an event that brings together companies and manufacturers in the sector to share new products and generate new synergies and opportunities for collaboration between companies. It works through round tables on various current topics in the sector, which favours the dynamic character of the event, beyond the usual stands and conferences. Once again, Cojali will participate through Jaltest ISOBUS. In parallel, software development engineers from the companies have the opportunity to compare the compatibility of their developments in an extensive testing schedule.

Jaltest ISOBUS offers solutions for the digitalisation of all types of agricultural equipment, ensuring the compatibility between agricultural implements and the tractor, regardless of the manufacturer. The objective is to achieve the maximum performance of the agricultural equipment in order to manage successfully and comfortably a productive and efficient business adapted to new technologies and environmental requirements. On this occasion, it will share with participants and visitors its latest innovations and technological solutions, among others:

• Jaltest i-Connect: Wireless ISOBUS technology retrofit kit adaptable to all tractors on the market.

• Jaltest ICM: Electronic control unit for agricultural implements based on ISOBUS technology.

• Jaltest HIK: Portable equipment with wireless technology designed for connecting any ISOBUS agricultural implement.
