App Profile: Tractor GPS - Field Guidance

Tractor GPS™ guidance system is developed for tractor and machinery operators, providing precise navigation for all agricultural activities.

This iPhone app is tailored to enhance fieldwork efficiency through GPS technology.

Tractor GPS requires a paid subscription (that includes a 7 day free trial) to access.


Why Tractor GPS for iPhone?

• Cost-Effectiveness: Compared to dedicated GPS systems for tractors, which can be quite expensive, an iPhone-based app is significantly more affordable. Many farmers already own smartphones, so the primary cost would be the app itself, which is often much less than hardware-based systems.

• Increased Precision and Efficiency: GPS technology allows for precise navigation and field mapping, enabling tractors to follow exact paths with minimal overlap. This precision reduces wasted time and fuel, making farming operations more efficient.

• Ease of Use: Smartphones are designed to be user-friendly, and most people are already familiar with their operation. This familiarity translates to a shorter learning curve for using an iPhone-based GPS app, allowing farmers to quickly integrate it into their farming practices.

• Portability: An iPhone-based app can be easily carried between different vehicles and machinery, making it versatile for various tasks around the farm. This portability ensures that precision farming techniques can be applied across a wide range of operations without the need for multiple dedicated systems.

• Regular Updates: Software-based solutions like iPhone apps can be updated regularly to introduce new features, improve accuracy, and fix bugs. This ensures that farmers have access to the latest technology and can adapt to new farming practices or regulatory requirements more easily.

• Lower Input Costs: By improving the accuracy of planting, fertilizing, and pesticide application, GPS systems help minimize the amount of seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides used. This targeted application reduces input costs and environmental impact.

• Enhanced Crop Yields: Precision farming facilitated by GPS technology can lead to better crop management and higher yields. Accurate data and field mapping enable optimized planting patterns and resource application, which can boost crop health and productivity.

• Reduced Operator Fatigue: GPS-guided tractors can operate with minimal manual intervention, reducing the physical and mental strain on operators. Automated steering systems allow operators to focus more on monitoring the machinery and less on steering, leading to longer productive hours with less fatigue.
