About Trimble Agriculture

The Agriculture division builds precision farming systems, including displays and automated guidance systems for agricultural vehicles. Farmers use our guidance systems to automatically steer their tractors with highly accurate GPS/GNSS-based control. Our display systems automatically control farm implements performing operations like planting seeds, spraying fertilizer, and measuring crop yield in an optimal way based on soil conditions and agronomist prescriptions. Our displays send the farm data to our web-based farm and fleet management system Trimble Agriculture business software. We save water, fuel, chemicals, and time and increase crop yields along the way.

Driving efficiency and profitability in the field, we offer field solutions for vehicles and implement guidance and steering; flow and application control; irrigation, drainage, land leveling, land forming, terraces, and waterways; harvest and yield monitoring; and a broad suite of correction services to meet your accuracy needs.
