Precision farming is changing the way farmers work. It helps reduce costs, improve accuracy, and save valuable time in the field. But for many farmers, high prices and complicated equipment make it difficult to start. FieldBee is here to change that. We focus on developing affordable, easy-to-use solutions that bring the power of RTK GPS and tractor auto steering to every farm. This is the story of how we made precision agriculture more accessible — together with our loyal customers.
Making precision farming more accessible
Many farmers dream about using highly accurate RTK GPS technologies. But for years, the cost of precision systems and their complex setup have made them difficult to access. At FieldBee, we believe that every farmer should be able to benefit from smart farming, regardless of farm size or budget.
That’s why we created the FieldBee RTK with autosteering system — a solution that offers centimetre-level precision, easy installation, and affordable pricing. Our goal is to help farmers save time, reduce costs, and simplify their work with reliable technology.
How the FieldBee autosteer journey started
When we decided to present the FieldBee RTK with automatic steering for tractors, we knew we wanted to introduce it in a real, working environment. Instead of spending huge sums on big trade fairs, we went straight to where farming happens — the field.
One of our first customers, Georg, kindly invited us to his farm near Agritechnica. Thanks to his support, we demonstrated our system directly in the field, showing how it works in everyday conditions. This approach allowed us to connect with farmers who care about practical, affordable solutions — not big marketing.
A loyal customer is as good as gold
Georg’s story is inspiring. He left his office job to return to his family’s 300-year-old farm. Today, he grows vegetables, mostly potatoes, and is passionate about modern farming. Georg’s support helped us bring the tractor autosteering solution to life.
His story proves that loyalty and real partnership with farmers is what drives us forward. Working closely with our community helps us build better solutions that truly meet farmers' needs.
What makes the FieldBee automatic steering system different?
There are many tractor guidance systems on the market. But FieldBee offers something truly unique — a solution that is precise, flexible, easy to use, and affordable. Farmers choose FieldBee because the system helps them work smarter, not harder.
High accuracy
The FieldBee RTK system provides guidance accuracy of 0–4 cm. This level of precision allows you to sow, spray, and harvest without overlaps or missed spots. Thanks to the RTK GPS receiver and a stable connection to the RTK GPS base station, you can achieve top accuracy even in difficult working conditions. The system is also compatible with local NTRIP correction services, giving you more flexibility to choose the most convenient signal source.
Built-in terrain compensation
The autosteering system comes with built-in terrain compensation. This feature automatically corrects the tractor’s position when working on slopes or uneven ground. You don’t need to purchase any additional components — the system already includes everything you need for stable precision on hilly fields. This improves overall accuracy and helps you keep straight lines, even when the terrain changes.
Works on any tractor
The FieldBee automatic steering for tractors is compatible with more than 1,000 tractor models. Whether you are using a new steer-ready machine or an older tractor, the system can be installed and configured to fit your equipment. For less common tractor models, FieldBee offers special adjustment kits, making the system accessible for almost every farm.
Flexible installation options
FieldBee supports three installation types: steer-ready, hydraulic, and mechanical. Steer-ready tractors offer the fastest setup, but if your machine does not support this option, you can still easily install the system using hydraulic or mechanical configurations. This flexibility makes FieldBee suitable for nearly any farm, regardless of tractor age or model.
Proven high-quality components
The RTK GPS system from FieldBee is built with components trusted by well-known agricultural brands like Claas, Mueller-Electronics, Ag Leader, and TeeJet. These high-quality parts ensure long-lasting performance and reliable results season after season. With FieldBee, you can count on professional-grade technology at an affordable price.
Easy to move between tractors
The FieldBee system is designed to work across multiple machines. You can quickly transfer it from one tractor to another by installing a small additional kit on each tractor. Moving the system takes just a few hours, which makes FieldBee a practical choice for farmers who use several machines throughout the season.
Upgradable system
FieldBee is not just a steering solution — it’s a smart investment in the future. The system can be upgraded with new features like section control, team coordination, and more. The FieldBee App is regularly updated to provide farmers with useful tools that make fieldwork even easier. You can start simple and expand the system later as your farm grows.
Affordable pricing
One of FieldBee’s biggest advantages is its price. You get a smart farming GPS with centimetre-level precision at a cost that is often lower than other sub-metre systems. The RTK base station can cover your entire farm and nearby areas, giving you high accuracy at a much more accessible price. FieldBee offers real value without compromising on quality.
