Precision Guidance Ends Overlap Waste
The GPS-based auto-steer system for agriculture prevents farmers from applying their chemicals twice which leads to a 10-15% savings in their annual chemical expenses.
The Trimble GFX-750 operates at 2.5cm RTK accuracy to keep straight lines throughout 1000ha fields. The machine operates without any breaks or missed signals while running for 12 hours straight.
Agriculture GPS systems combine sprayer controllers which adjust their application rates based on the different areas of the field by giving weed-infested sections twice the amount of chemicals while using minimal application for the areas that show signs of health. Queensland cotton saves $25/ha.
The product selection at Silvan includes Raven and Trimble receivers which work with various leading brands in the market.
Variable Rate Spraying Maximises ROI
The system matches GPS data with farming maps and NDVI drone information to create prescription files.
The system disables boom sections which cross waterways to reduce product consumption by 20 percent. John Deere G5 operates liquid and granular material management at the same time.
The nozzles which operate at variable settings produce different droplet sizes based on their operating speed and pressure levels.
Blipbr provides GPS agricultural services which enable users to monitor their spreader rates during each moment of operation. The first year of WA broadacre farming led to a 30 percent reduction in input costs for growers. Silvan calibration kits ensure accuracy.
Controlled Traffic Farming Saves Soil
GPS navigation marks fixed wheel paths which shield soil from damage that results in crop yield losses of 15 percent. The system lets operators maintain their desired 3m path year after year. Sprayers follow exact tractor paths.
The NSW DPI conducted experiments which demonstrated that fuel consumption dropped by 25% and soil damage reduced by 40%. Silvan operates an implement GPS system which pairs its implements with tractor signals.
Data-Driven Decisions Boost Profits
The GPS system in agriculture produces coverage maps which combine with yield information to identify areas that show poor performance.
The spot-spray prescriptions target only 10% of the paddock while they achieve a 70% reduction in chemical usage.
John Deere Operations Centre clouds analytics Australia-wide. The Raven CR7 zone management system operates through Silvan compatibility.
Regulatory Compliance Simplified
The agricultural GPS units which received CASA approval fulfill APVMA buffer zone requirements without needing additional measures. Virtual fences enforce no-spray zones. Audit trails prove compliance.
The Silvan RTK base stations function with 95% uptime across Australia.
