AutoPath™ | John Deere

Managing guidance lines throughout the crop year from strip till to harvest is difficult. Keeping on top of pre plant fertilizer strips is almost impossible. Staying off growing crop rows while spraying is a challenge, and counting guest rows at harvest is sometimes inaccurate. At John Deere. We get it and we're pleased to introduce the solution. Autopath Autopath creates guidance lines using crop row maps generated during the first pass through the field. Be it a strip till or planter.

Pass, farmers really don't have to do anything different than they ever did before. They need to put an implement receiver on their planter or on their strip till. Rig the first pass through the field so that we can map that data. But beyond that, nothing really changes. In fact, it gets easier for them.

On your second pass. Whether planting, spraying or harvesting, Autopath automatically creates guidance lines for the entire field, regardless of your equipment width. And by the way, we're the only manufacturer that creates guidance lines for future passes from actual planted rows. Autopath lets you begin each next pass quickly and confidently, taking data from the.

First infield pass, making machines even smarter for next infield passes. You can't help but wonder what the foundation that Autopath is forging will be for what comes in the future.

It also protects yield potential at planting. Autopath helps you accurately plant each row where it can best use your nutrient investment with minimal soil disturbance throughout the growing season. Autopath keeps your machine tires between the planted rows and off the crop and at harvest. Autopath guides you to a proper starting point in any part of your field and then automatically provides guidance lines based on the width of the combine head, even if it's different than the planter. For example, harvesting with a 16 row cornhead after using a 24 row planter is no problem. Autopath keeps you on established guidance lines, reduces the risk of partial width passes, and helps your combine operate at capacity.

We give you guidance lines for the entire field, not just for your rows of crop, which makes your job a lot easier.

Keep in mind, any machine using Autopath, tractor sprayer or combine needs the Automation 4.0 bundle, and as you step up to Autopath for the value it unlocks in your operation, don't overlook the benefits of the other applications included in the Automation bundle, such as autotrac Implement Guidance. Used with your implement mounted receiver at planting, it maintains consistent, accurate row spacing across the entire field, even on gently sloping terrain and around curves. Autotrac Turn Automation takes the work out of headland turns during planting or tillage, letting you focus more on job quality and less on steering and at harvest machine sink helps maintain combine efficiency by automating unloading on the go while reducing the risk of equipment collision. Autopath, like all of our automation focused applications, works with our premium Gen 4 display, the 4600 Command center display, and the 4640 Universal display. Your dealer can fill you in on the specifics.

I think that Autopath and the approach that it takes is going to really revolutionize the way that agriculture, precision, ag and work in the field gets done.

Take charge of guidance line management with your first pass, protect your nutrient investment and your crop throughout the growing season, and take the guesswork out of guest rows regardless of equipment width. Autopath helps you take each pass through the field with confidence and precision. To experience Autopath or learn more, talk to your dealer Sam.
