State-of-the-Art High-Efficiency Agricultural Machinery

State-of-the-Art Agricultural Machinery Video

Interesting and efficient technologies used in agriculture. Of course, it’s not space technology, but these machines can give ideas to the many people involved in farming who want to grow or simplify their operations. The agricultural machines you’ll watch in the video can serve as an example of how time and manpower can be saved.

GPS-Assisted Steering

Modern agricultural machines can drive automatically with centimeter-precision GPS guidance.

Variable Rate Application

Smart fertilizing/spraying systems can apply different amounts within a field based on soil data.

Yield Mapping

Harvesters generate yield maps during harvest, giving farmers field-level performance data.

Overlapping or leaving gaps between rows during planting or fertilizing wastes both seed and fertilizer. High-precision GPS lets the machine follow the same, even rows every time, preventing this waste.

Soil fertility isn’t the same at every point in a field. By looking at previously collected soil data, the system can apply more fertilizer or pesticide to areas that need more, and less to areas that need less.
