Stay off emerged crops when spraying, without having to slow down in fear of damaging crops. Don’t count guess rows when you’re harvesting crops. Oh, and don’t use your hands to steer the machine while you’re at it.</li> <li><strong>Reduces hunting for guess rows</strong> when spraying or harvesting a field.</li> <li>Makes harvesting easier in down crop conditions, and less than ideal conditions in general.</li> <li>Farmers can now easily use implements and machines of varying widths. Plant with a 24-row planter and harvest with a 16-row corn head with no issues. AutoPath keeps you on established guidance tracks that accommodate each machine, reducing the risk of partial width passes.</li> <li><strong>Eliminates the complexity of trying to manage guidance tracks</strong>, especially in standing crops, from tillage to harvest.</li> <li>Helps <strong>maximize overall yield</strong> <strong>by reducing crop damage</strong>. When spraying at high speeds, even a few short seconds of driving over crop can cause measurable yield losses. Take harvest into consideration. In higher yielding corn, every second of driving on the row can lead to 17.6 L (0.5 bu) or more in loss. Over the course of a day, the amount of damaged crop can add up fast, impacting your bottom line.</li> <li>Row crops are rarely simple, straight lines, and fields often have irregular boundaries.

In higher yielding corn, every second of driving on the row can lead to 17.6 L (0.5 bu) or more in loss. Over the course of a day, the amount of damaged crop can add up fast, impacting your bottom line.</li> <li>Row crops are rarely simple, straight lines, and fields often have irregular boundaries. Planting around water holes, waterways, or terraces adds complexity, but these challenges can be easily overcome with the AutoPath, path planning tool.</li> </ul></div></div></div></div><div class="accordion2_component"><div class="accordion2_top"><div class="text-size-medium text-weight-bold">AutoPath&trade; (Boundaries) versus Boundary Fill</div><div class="accordion2_icon w-embed"><svg width="100%" height="100%" viewBox="0 0 32 32" fill="none" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M25.3333 15.667V16.3336C25.3333 16.7018 25.0349 17.0003 24.6667 17.0003H17V24.667C17 25.0351 16.7015 25.3336 16.3333 25.3336H15.6667C15.2985 25.3336 15 25.0351 15 24.667V17.0003H7.3333C6.96511 17.0003 6.66663 16.7018 6.66663 16.3336V15.667C6.66663 15.2988 6.96511 15.0003 7.3333 15.0003H15V7.33365C15 6.96546 15.2985 6.66699 15.6667 6.66699H16.3333C16.7015 6.66699 17 6.96546 17 7.33365V15.0003H24.6667C25.0349 15.0003 25.3333 15.2988 25.3333 15.667Z" fill="currentColor"></path></svg></div></div><div style="width: 1118px; height: 0px;" class="accordion2_bottom"><div class="margin-bottom margin-small"><div><div class="seccion-images"></div> <p>With the introduction of AutoPath (Boundaries), the million-dollar question is, "How is this solution any different from Boundary Fill?"</p> <p> </p> <p>We are happy you asked.
