2025 John Deere AutoPath™

• Reduce crop damage and increase yields by using exact crop row location to plan guidance throughout the year with AutoPath (rows)

• Plan and start your work quicker by creating a complete set of guidance tracks within the Operations Center or directly in the display, based on a driven field boundary

• Take the guesswork out of finding the perfect first pass, or the proper starting point for a field, regardless of equipment width or the job at hand

Features may include:

• Have confidence from start to finish

• I would never go back to not having AutoPath™…one of the best things on the farm.

• No matter the method, AutoPath enables precise execution of farming practices that may not be possible otherwise. Precisely seed between the rows of last year’s crop, plant directly on a fertilizer strip, spray without driving over crops, and consistently harvest at capacity. Simply put, AutoPath can make your job easier and more effective, even in difficult fields. AutoPath users now have two options when it comes to automatic, full-field guidance plan creation. AutoPath (rows) and AutoPath (boundaries). Check it out.

• Automatically generate full-field guidance plans from crop row data

• I absolutely love it. After the planter goes through, we have no issues side dressing, spraying, and harvesting.

• How it works:

• AutoPath™ creates guidance tracks for the entire field using crop row data recorded during the first pass through the field, whether that be a fertilizer application, tillage, or planting pass. The exact crop row or fertilizer location is captured and mapped using an implement mounted, StarFire™ Receiver, which means that fundamentally, farmers don’t need to do anything different as they work a field. In fact, adding this technology makes their lives easier as time passes.

• AutoPath lets users begin each 'next pass' through the field quickly and confidently using their previously recorded data to guide them.

• Exact crop location is recorded using an implement-mounted receiver during the first pass of the crop year

• Use AutoPath to complete later passes in standing crop with confidence

• Find equipment requirements and compatibility for crop row documentation here.

• The AutoPath™ (Rows) advantage

• Farmers have been using AutoPath (Rows) since 2020. Those who have adopted it, have been able to see the advantage that it provides their operation.

• If you have odd-shaped fields like we do, it makes headland line management a piece of cake. Also, if you have to swing out for a pole or a standpipe, it records that position in the primary pass even while free handing and the planter steers it.

• It’s great to start planting at night. Use the lines from the previous year and go.

• Check out some of the additional advantages AutoPath (Rows) can provide its users.

• Automatically generates field guidance tracks for the next pass, accommodating for equipment width, based on actual planted crop rows.

• Accomplish work you could not manually. - Stay precisely on top preplant fertilizer strips when planting. 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.

• Reduces hunting for guess rows when spraying or harvesting a field.

• Makes harvesting easier in down crop conditions, and less than ideal conditions in general.
