What is automatic steering system?

Due to increasing global warming, increasing population, increasing need for fruits and vegetables and decreasing workforce, it has become imperative to increase productivity in production.

For this reason, we need to use technology in agriculture and thus the term smart agriculture has entered our lives.

The main purpose of these technologies is to protect the environment, increase sustainability and maximize the efficiency obtained in agriculture.

We can do this with products produced using various technologies. One of these developed technologies is the automatic steering system.

If you wish, let's talk about what the automatic steering system is in the rest of our article.

Automatic Steering system;

The use of robotic and autonomous technologies in agricultural field studies is increasing day by day.

One of the main reasons for this is to increase the yield obtained in agriculture and to eliminate errors as much as possible. With this technology, there is also a decrease in the labor cost.

The automatic steering system is basically a specially developed system that allows the driver to move the tractor or other agricultural machinery on a predetermined route.

So this system makes your tractor or machine semi-automatic. In these systems, simcard is used and thanks to the simcard, it is possible to connect to the correction system published by the General Directorate of Land Registry and Cadastre.

Thanks to these systems, you can work smoothly regardless of weather conditions and terrain conditions.

What are the benefits of the automatic steering system?

• With these systems, efficiency increases and environmental pollution decreases.
  
• Thanks to this system, you can draw more lines on large lands and thus you will produce more.
• The workload of the operators is reduced and they work in a less stressful environment.
• Thanks to this system, labor difficulty and cost are also reduced.
• When one row is completed and the second row is passed in operations such as spraying and fertilizing, the tractor may not be able to take a precise turn and therefore large input losses may occur. This causes a decrease in product quality. To eliminate this, extra equipment is added to the tractor, but with this, the operator controls the tractor more difficult. With the automatic steering system, similar problems are eliminated.
