Summary

On the latest episode of the Precision Agriculture Technology podcast, host Tony Kramer and guest Ben Hilde discuss John Deere’s new AutoPathTM. This advanced yet simple guidance solution uses data collected from the first pass in the field, whether spraying, side-dressing, or harvest, to establish row guidance for all subsequent field passes, no matter the machine type or width of equipment. AutoPath is included in the John Deere Generation 4 Automation Bundle and available for either the 4600 CommandCenter™ Integrated Display or the 4640 Universal Display. It's available for use on tractors, sprayers and combines, and can be incorporated with active and passive implement guidance systems for planters, nutrient applicators, and other field equipment. AutoPath is available now.
