My renter has that in several units- they also transfer between units when wired properly. Easy to spend 15 grand on a system that controls within an inch of where you should be, less accurate tracking is cheaper. Also an annual fee from the provider, like JD. He yield maps with the combine, uses that info in the spring for variable rate fertilizer application, with exact parallel passes, autosteer on tillage eliminates skips and overlaps, same with the sprayer. Can shut off nozzle groups on point rows, restart when it should. Planting, he makes half the turn and the tractor lines itself up. Can be set up to raise and lower the planter without skips and overlap. Control row groups (or singles) on point rows. Considerably less operator fatigue on long rows, combine stays on the rows at high speed, coupled with auto header height control, lotsa acres per day. Side benefits- locating spots in a field- he can drive a new tile line and map it for future reference, strike a new land from one end of the field, at any angle from the starting point. Systems are getting very common here with grain farmers, agronomy suppliers.
