Trimble AG

Established more than 25 years ago, Tru Count is one of the leaders in providing precision planting solutions. It offers air and electric clutches to the agricultural community. Tru Count clutches with the EZ-Boom 2010 automated application control system contain a wide variety of displays, which include the Trimble EZ-Guide Plus lightbar, EZ-Guide 500 lightbar and FmX integrated display. Jeff Dillman of Tru Count currently holds six patents. In October 2008, the company was acquired by Trimble Navigation Limited, which is one of the leading providers of advanced positioning solutions and contains over 900 patents. The company uses global positioning system (GPS)-based, overlap control technology, which avoids double seeding and increases field yields.
