Have you ever struggled to plant your beds in perfectly straight lines? If so, you're not alone, we’ve definitely been there too. Werkr's Autonomous Tractor Mode helps address this issue.
Take a look at the photo below. It clearly shows the difference: our middle row, planted using Autonomous Mode, is straight as an arrow compared to the manually driven onion beds on the right.
By simply defining a point at the beginning and end of the bed, Autonomous Mode allows the tractor to connect the two points, in a perfectly straight line.
Today, we seeded our carrots and spinach autonomously, using RTK GPS technology. What’s great about this system is that the path is saved digitally, so when it's time to weed, we can follow the exact same route. This ensures pinpoint accuracy, reduces the risk of crop damage, and makes the most efficient use of our field space.
