Auto Steer for Tractor used in Precision Agriculture

FJDynamics tractor auto steer (FJD Autosteering Kit) gps guidance system has been widely used in precision agriculture. Equipped with GNSS and RTK technology , this auto steer provides 2.5cm accuracy precise guidance for tractors. The high accuracy of tractor auto steer makes farming easier and more efficient.

Precision Agriculture

What is precision agriculture？

Precision agriculture is an agricultural management strategy. It is a science that uses information analytic tools to improve crop yields and assist farmers in management decisions.

Based on observation and measurement, It collects temporal, spatial and individual information. By processing and analyzing information, it can support agricultural management decision-making. Ultimately improve resource efficiency, productivity, production quality profitability, and sustainability of agricultural production.

At a technical level, precision agriculture is also called GPS farming or variable speed farming.

What is precision agriculture for?

The ultimate goal of precision agriculture: Producing more with fewer resources, while maintaining superior quality standards. It can divide into two parts.

For agriculturalists. It can optimize workflows and resources. Thus reducing consumption and waste and increasing land productivity. Management makes processes faster and more efficient, reducing production costs. This results in higher earnings and socio-economic status for agricultural workers.

For the environment. More rational use of resource, less waste and emission of fertilizers and herbicides. Reduces soil compaction, prevents soil degradation. Precision agriculture keeps the land in a sustainable state.

Benefits of Auto Steer in Precision Agriculture

Auto steer is a programmed tractor guidance system that does the job precisely as expected, avoiding human errors. This tractor guidance system makes agricultural work easy, and the driver hardly has to do anything to get the tractor to do the job with great precision.  In summary it has the following benefits:

1. Reduce driver fatigue

Driving seeders, harvesters, sprayers, etc. all day long is a very tiring task for the driver. The driver needs to stay awake at all times, to ensure that the tractor does not go off course. In a large piece of farmland, doing repetitive operations can easily make the driver feel tired . Tractor auto steer helps the driver to do the energy-intensive work of monitoring and controlling the direction, and the driver can simply stare at the screen to have a clear view of the current operation.

2. Reduce operating cost

Auto steer avoids row overlap and keeps the tractor working accurately. This avoids the waste of seeds and fertilizers and reduces the cost of seeds, fertilizers and other materials. Also the cost on labor is greatly reduced as rework is avoided and the operation is accelerated.

3. Improve production quality and quantity

By avoiding excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides in overlapping areas, each plant can get fertilizers and pesticides in the planned amount, so that the plants are in good health to the maximum extent and the quality and quantity of production are improved.

Tesla Autopilot nags drivers to hold the wheel more often

Tesla Autopilot nags drivers to hold the wheel more often

In light of recent crashes where Tesla said drivers didn’t pay sufficient attention while on Autopilot, it’s rolling outupdates to address the problem. The first one, issued several days ago, nags drivers every 30 seconds to “hold steering wheel,” instead at one to two minute intervals as before. However, drivers didn’t get that just grabbing the wheel alone didn’t stop the warnings. So,…
