Great use of technology, just a little fine tuning. Have you any jobs on your farm where a fully autonomous tractor could add value and benefits. Greetings from Dundalk, Ireland.
Is there an automatic GPS assisted up/down of the planter for those permanent obstacles in the field? Like the drains you had to stop for... For rocks that have not been picked you might need some camera assisted system. And that is also hard cause of the dust that can be around. So probably something more sophisticated like lidar and radar with the capability of distinguishing rocks from soil. 🤔
Right now there isn’t an automated system when planting around/thru the field obstacles such as the tile intake. Similar to large rocks that are out in the field, I’m required to take control of the tractor and stop in order to move the rock out of the way to continue planting. Definitely two things that will need to worked out for full autonomy
Great video! How far can you go into the ditch when planting? Does the county have so much space you're supposed to keep? What's the purpose of the tile intake in the middle of the field? Is there a reason it's there rather than at the end of a field?
My goal is to plant from fencerow to fencerow of a field. There's different set back requirements depending on the road. A township gravel road is we usually have to stay back 30ft from the center. A large state highway can be between 50 and 90ft. It's required for traffic safety and allows space for utilities such as telephone poles and underground wires to be serviced without damaging a crop.
Awesome farm machine, I can't stop watching
Thanks!
Good to see that rascal Matt. I was wondering if he would come out. Great video.
You and me both! 😅
Very nice informative video….thanks for your video on technology!
Glad it was helpful!
I really like the detail you give on what your machines (you) are capable of doing. Very impressive, thanks!
Thank you very much!
Hi Matthias! Great video, love your showing us how it works or doesn't! LOL. They need to keep it in the fields and not on the roads! 🤣
Appreciate it! It fascinates me how one field it’ll work exactly like I want and the next it’ll be nothing like I want
So next spring we’ll be able to livestream HiTech Farmer via FurrowVision? Nice!!
Perhaps you’ll be able to see my seeds entering the soil thru a livestream. Still need to see the cost of furrowvision
cool JD Technology they have 😀✌in your next video can you talk about how JD planted work in the field?
Yeah I’ll show more about the planter and the metering devices! Stay tuned

Thanks! Absolutely we do. All of our tillage could be automated in a rather easy fashion. This would help with our labor in the fall especially
I Like you explanations, I dont know how your stuff works
Appreciate it!

More technology more money and more headaches lol 😂
Time is money. Saving time=saving money. If everything works of course
@@HiTech_Farmer I watch a lot of farming videos, electronics is a headache
