Apex™ software
Apex Farm Management software is a basic program that archives historical field data where it can be visualized in the form of maps and reports and can be used to create prescriptions, boundaries, and guidance lines. Such information helps to implement better management practices and, in turn, leads to maximizing productivity and profitability.

APEX works with data and applications from your GreenStar System. Apex Live Update Apex™ Live Update helps users stay up-to-date
To provide producers with the newest features and functions, the Apex Farm Management Software can be updated on a regular basis through Apex Live Update.
With this feature, producers do not have to worry about keeping up with e-mails, checking a Web site, or downloading information from a CD to update their program. They can enable the Live Update feature to check for Apex updates on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, provided the user has an active Internet connection.
Apex Live Update works best with a high-speed Internet connection, as updates can take a considerable amount of time when downloading through a dial-up connection.
Navigation within the Apex Farm Management Software is simple and easy. Apex allows users to filter what information they would like to view in the map tree.
Several areas within Apex are based on a tree structure where the user begins with the client name and keeps expanding the tree structure, ending with a specific map layer they want to see.
Additionally, the user can manage and arrange the map layers they are viewing by using the map layering tools below the map layers' window. Improved load identification and functionality Load nameApex™ software has the capability to identify individual loads by name.

Enhanced decision making reports
Apex™ Farm Management software is a basic data management solution that plays a significant role both before a producer goes to the field and after each operation is complete. Just like a producer has to put money into their operation to get money out, they have to put data into the GreenStar™ system to get data out.
Before going to the field, producers can set up operational information in Apex and save the setup data to their USB drive.
Once the USB drive is inserted into the GreenStar display, all associated menus are pre-populated. This saves any downtime that would have been spent manually entering farm and field names while sitting in the field.
Additionally, setting up data in Apex ensures the consistency of such names when managing multiple operators or systems throughout the growing season.
After each operation is complete, the operator can unload the field data into Apex. After the data is unloaded, maps and reports can be generated, so the producer can easily visualize how previous management decisions impacted production and what improvements can still be made.
Apex offers producers the basics—the ability to organize and analyze both historical and current field data.
Use Apex™ to make better management decisions
As technology becomes more sophisticated and advanced, there are times when information is deemed rather outdated and ineffective after only one year. However, when it comes to agricultural field data, many management decisions are based on historical trends. Historical Apex data can help a producer do the following:
