Customer Benefits of Precision Farming

CNH AfterMarket Solutions and New Holland offer you a full range of GPS guidance solutions available at factory or as after market kits.

This allows you to answer all your customer needs on their New Holland machine but also on his other manufacturers’ machines.

In this catalogue, you will find all the information related to our aftermarket products offering, from GPS guidance to crop input control.

All customers regardless of their specific needs receive the following benefits from GPS guidance:


Reduce operational costs

  • Saving fuel and input costs by ensuring parallel passes when working either in straight lines, curves, pivots or on undulating ground.


Improve productivity in every condition

  • Allows planting, spraying, cultivating or harvesting in difficult weather conditions or at night.
  • Precision and accuracy are guaranteed even in dusty conditions.
  • Enlarges and optimizes planted areas.


Increase operator’s comfort

  • Operators can work longer hours and focus on implement work rather than steering.
  • Less skilled operators can do the job.
  • Operator can concentrate on the machine and the implements rather than on steering.


Environment protection

  • Less soil compaction which means lower evaporation rate and higher crop root penetration.
  • Reduced fuel consumption.
  • Reduced pesticides consumption.

Understand The Basics Of Gps Guidance

GPS Guidance is a Comfort and Productivity Investment

GPS guidance helps farmers to enhance productivity and reduce costs. GPS guidance solutions employ satellite signals to accurately guide the tractor or combine, even in bad weather or dusty field conditions.

Each field operation has a GPS guidance tailored solution for the best results.

GPS Guidance is a Matter Of Repeatability

  • The simple signal from a GPS satellite works well with car navigation systems but is not accurate enough for precision farming operations, that require precision up to 1.5 cm.
  • Farming GPS guidance is based on real time corrections of the GPS signal calculated either by a central control station, a server or a movable ground radio station. It is then sent to the GPS guidance enabled equipment.
  • GPS guidance accuracy is calculated on pass-to-pass basis (relative accuracy measured at 15 minutes intervals). It is also calculated on a year to year basis (capacity to repeat the same rows up to a week, a month, a year later).

Three Areas of Consideration

Three areas have to be considered when building a GPS guidance solution:

The correction signal will determine:

  • The accuracy of the GPS receiver, from 1 meter down to 1.5 cm.
  • The repeatability of the path from one year to another.
  • The cost of use of the solution, free or subscription based.

The steering system can be:


  • Manual guidance.
  • Assisted autoguidance.
  • Integrated autoguidance.
