All of my systems come loaded with fully featured agriculture GPS software for guidance. They are Panasonic Toughbooks which are rugged computers and tablets, suitable for demanding field conditions. These are highly reliable machines that can also be used around the farm for other purposes. They can stand up to the elements for years. There is a light bar on top of the screen. Furthermore, the screen shows a top down view of your implement painting the field, with overlaps. That’s easy! Please consider one of the preconfigured packages. All available options are listed below, if you want to customize things yourself. I also offer cheap RTK kits which include your own base station. This means that you never have to pay for an RTK subscription again!

Topcon X14 | Agricision onTrak | Patchwork BlackBox Air | Sixty-5 Grass-Guide | Ag Leader InCommand | Teejet Matrix 430 | Raven Cruizer | Trimble GFX-750 EZ-Guide 250 GFX-350 | CenterLine 220 | John Deere | FieldBee.

Dealers still charge tens of thousands of dollars for farming GPS systems in 2022! This is not technologically justifiable. RTK and other technologies have developed to the point where they should be affordable to anyone, not just big farmers with a budget in the tens of thousands.
