Viper Pro Receives 2008 FinOvation Award

Raven's Viper Pro rate controller won a FinOvation Award presented by Farm Industry News. This award recognizes the most innovative agricultural products from the past year where winners are chosen as being the most innovative, based on reader interest.

Raven Industries was among the first companies to add Internet access to its controller to allow growers in the cab to check online for market prices, weather or other information. The new Viper Pro rate controller includes hardwired Ethernet and USB connections so a grower may use either a cell phone interface cable or a USB WiFi adapter to log onto the Internet. In addition, the Viper Pro continues to provide all the functions of the current Viper, including variable-rate application, variable-rate mapping, data logging, automatic boom section control and boom leveling.
