Have tractors drive autonomously across the field
Farmers have tractors drive autonomously across the field using GPS and AI
Fits: Production, engineering & maintenance
Long, repetitive field work runs without a driver, even at night. Less overlap saves diesel, seed and fertiliser.
Is this for you?
- You farm large, contiguous areas.
- You already use a GPS guidance system.
- There are not enough drivers at peak times.
First step today
Use the template below to analyse the data from your GPS guidance system for last season: how many hours were pure track driving on large fields? That is your potential.
How to go about it
- Define operations and fields
- Draw up a safety plan for field and farmyard
- Choose a retrofit kit or manufacturer solution
- Trial under supervision
- Approve more areas step by step
- Keep checking sensors and operation
