Description

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

  • App Question

    Is there any way to connect to an external gps receiver to enhance the position in the app? iPhone signal may be adequate, but may be interested in getting some more accuracy if possible. Thanks
  • Good App but Too Expensive

    I used the app for the first time yesterday to fertilize a 20 ac hay field, and it was great! The only mild complaint about the functionality is that the speed tracker is inconsistent. I cancelled my subscription because $90/year is too high for the twice a year that I will fertilize. Can a subscription plan be created for us smaller users? I’m in for $20.
  • Question on Downloading Map

    Are you able to download a map of your area so this app can be on a device that is not connected to Wi-Fi? This app works well on my iPhone but when I try to use on my iPad (that is connected to Wi-Fi thru my phone) the gps is all over this place. I am trying to use my iPad to see the screen better since my phone is so small. Thanks
  • Best value solution I have found.

    You can’t go wrong for the price compared to buying an expensive big name system. I just use it in phone holder in the cab of my John Deere and I am ready to go.
  • Questions about it

    I need to know how accurate the width guide is? If I set it to how wide the sprayer goes out does it really track that. Also how accurate is the speed tracker?
  • Super useful!

    I have been using it for a couple of weeks and it is very useful. I was surprised how accurate the guidance is just using my phone. Anyway, you can’t go wrong for the price, a fraction of the cost of anything else.
