Description

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.

  • This app is EXTREMELY helpful

    Downloaded it to try it out planting, saved me multiple times and made me more efficient! Firstly, you can leave spots and come back to them if they are on the way out of the field or something so you don’t spend more time chasing small passes to clean up a field (if that makes sense) also, you don’t have to try and remember places to come back to if you have irregular shaped fields like I do. Saved me when my pto pump came off and I realized I wasn’t planting 5 acres later, I had already made tracks so it would have been extremely hard to plant over it and not get messed up, but with the app I just deleted my track and started over! Also helped me at night, I strongly recommend this app if you’re like me and cover a lot of ground and don’t have gps systems. Considering paying for it I liked it so much.
  • Ok, hope for further development

    Good : It tracks and displays where you’ve been on a satellite photo. Needs further development : Implement width should not default back to 52’ every use. Stop adding acres when the “stop” button has been hit. Turn off A/B lines as desired. Needs option to output data channel to Google Earth for permanent record keeping.
  • Great new product.

    Really nice app just needs the save feature and it will save farmers thousands.

    Out of curiosity I tried the trial . Never got notified on the 5th day to cancel . Absolute junk! Not even within 10 foot of accurate.
  • Disappointed

    Wanted a review before you even see it. Makes you sign up for 7 day trial to even see it. I feel like they hope you don’t take the time to cancel. No thanks
  • Perfect for small farm

    This app saved me from getting deeper into the high priced tractor GPS tech. The accuracy saves me on fuel, fertilizer, and seed. I would recommend this app to any farmer, especially smaller acreage.
  • Shockingly worked well!!

    Didn’t have time to get our gps system back in so we figured why not, give this app a try with the free trial. This actually worked really well. My dad who has never used a gps system really liked how well it worked and it was very easy to use. No you don’t have jobs you can save and other features as a full system, but it’s a great option for those that want to learn how gps works first or even smaller acreage properties where it’s not cost worthy for a system. Hopefully there will be an option in the future that you can export your jobs (or we don’t have the option in the free trial) for record keeping. Super easy, non tech savvy users can even work it. Keeping our subscription and giving our kid an iPad to go work and color the lines.

    Seems to not be real accurate at times when you quit a field and come back to it a couple days later. But worth the money
  • Awesome app. Needs some features

    Super helpful app in the hilly pastures of the Ozarks. Would be really nice to save tracks and make them different colors. At 600$ per ton this app pays for itself in the fertilizer you save by not covering twice

    I planted 35 acres of grass seed using an old native grass planter. This program was amazing. Worked incredibly well.
