Saving with FieldBee PowerGuide: how precision guidance reduces costs

Saving resources is a key factor in profitable farming. Errors in tractor control lead to excessive fuel consumption, increased deterioration of equipment and additional maintenance costs. FieldBee PowerGuide helps farmers to optimize routes, reduce unnecessary runs and reduce the load on the tractor, which allows to reduce costs significantly. 

Saving with FieldBee PowerGuide: how precision guidance reduces costs

What costs can be reduced with a manual steering system?

By precisely controlling equipment, reducing errors in field processing and optimizing routes, farmers can reduce costs for fuel, repairs, seeds, fertilizers and other resources. Let’s look at how precise steering helps to make agricultural work more economical and efficient.

Fuel costs

Optimizing routes and avoiding unnecessary runs reduces fuel consumption because the tractor follows the most efficient trajectory. Eliminating overlaps and idle runs reduces unnecessary fuel consumption, which is especially important during processing of large areas.

Repair and maintenance costs

Precise steering reduces deterioration of the steering system, transmission and chassis, reducing the frequency of breakdowns. Smooth and predictable tractor movement reduces the load on the mechanisms, which extends the service life of the equipment and reduces repair costs.

Overuse of seeds, fertilizers and chemicals

FieldBee GPS helps to avoid overlaps and gaps, ensuring an even distribution of seeds, fertilizers and crop protection products. This reduces the overuse of materials, reduces costs and improves yields due to the precise application of agrochemicals.

Labor costs

Optimized driving reduces the operating time of equipment, which reduces the amount of labor required and reduces labor costs. In addition, precise steering reduces operator fatigue, increasing overall productivity.

Wear of tires and other consumables

Precise steering control reduces unnecessary maneuvers and slippage, extending the service life of tires and other components. Even load distribution prevents premature wear of consumables, which reduces the frequency of their replacement.

Crop losses due to errors in field cultivation

Errors in tractor control can lead to uneven soil cultivation, which negatively affects the rooting of plants and their subsequent growth. Uneven plowing, overlapping or missed areas prevent the uniform distribution of moisture and nutrients, which reduces crop yields. Precise steering helps to avoid these problems, ensuring a stable trajectory of movement, uniform soil preparation and accurate application of fertilizers.

Why choose FieldBee PowerGuide to reduce costs?

FieldBee PowerGuide is an innovative solution that helps farmers to reduce costs and improve the accuracy of agricultural machinery. Unlike conventional manual steering, the system ensures a stable driving path, eliminating errors such as overlaps, gaps and unnecessary maneuvers. This saves fuel, reduces tractor deterioration and reduces the loss of seeds, fertilizers and chemicals, making every operation more profitable.

Additionally, FieldBee PowerGuide helps to reduce the load on the operator, lowering fatigue and increasing operating comfort. Automated steering is especially useful in difficult terrain, loose soils and in low visibility conditions. Thanks to the ease of installation and compatibility with various tractor models, the system is easily integrated into the farm, helping to reduce operating costs significantly and improve the efficiency of the equipment.
