Semeadura de precisão e utilização de tráfego controlado em máquinas agrícolas: estudo de caso

Abstract

Looking for productivity increase, better utilization of the available agricultural fields and the cost reduction of production, in Brazilian and worldwide agricultural areas are being using in large-scale equipment with advanced technology and precision farming techniques, such as controlled traffic. This work demonstrates the use of the controlled traffic practice for agricultural machinery during planting task in agricultural areas of soybeans and corn within the universe of precision farming. To develop this work and generation of data, was used the Agricultural Management System (AMS) and John Deere equipment. The study area has 294 ha, belonging to a farm in the city of Santa Carmen - MT, where planting accompaniments were conducted for two consecutive years, where the results of this work were obtained.
