Precision of tractor operations with soil cultivation implements using manual and automatic steering modes
Highlights•Operating precision of a tractor in three steering modes was
evaluated.•Evaluated was the operating precision in manual and automatic steering
modes.•Results included the influence of the use of free and paid access to a GPS signal.•In
our opinion, the obtained results do not justify the cost of paid access.•Processes
demanding higher precision than soil cultivation may justify the cost.The influence of satellite
