Getting Started With Precision Farming
For those exploring precision farming for the first time, try a cost-effective, beginner-friendly solution for broad-acre farming, useful for any size operation.
How to Get Started With Precision Farming
Precision farming allows you to customize your work to the unique needs of your individual fields, increasing crop yield, productivity and profit. This can include many different data-harvesting or digitally assisted tools and software, such as GPS guidance, steering assistance, field mapping and variable rate technology. To begin boosting your operation and profits with precision farming, you will need a guidance controller to provide positioning data and a display for your cab to track the information as it’s received.
For an introduction to precision farming, consider choosing a straightforward, easy-to-learn technology that does not require prior experience. If you are just getting started, a more basic system without the complex sophistication of advanced models can allow you to both learn the system and choose which additional features and software you want.
For beginner-friendly precision technology that is customizable to your farm’s needs, pair the NAV-500™ guidance controller with an XCN-750™ display.
NAV-500 Guidance Controller
The NAV-500 guidance controller is a user-friendly introduction to precision farming technology. Use the GPS features for your full array of field operations, including tilling, planting, seeding and spraying. Maximize your efficiency with field mapping and autoguidance to prevent overlap, saving you both time and resources.
Assisted steering software boosts your efficiency in the field and decreases operator fatigue by turning the steering wheel for you and guiding the tractor down rows. Customize the NAV-500 guidance controller to your operation with assisted steering devices such as EZ-Steer™, EZ-Pilot® and EZ-Pilot Pro.
XCN-750 Display
The XCN-750 is display powered by Android® featuring an easy-to-use, cost-effective interface ideal for everyday field use and chores around the farm.
