For the field farmers is extremely important evaluating investments when purchasing equipment and machinery. The current economic situation, coupled with the cost of inputs requires the detailed review of each new project.

Adding an automatic pilot to the machinery is a matter of controversy, often for lack of knowledge or lack of information about the possible benefit in each particular production situation. Currently, what makes feasible this idea is the <strong>productive benefit</strong> it brings in comfort and extending working hours, allowing <strong>scaling in performance</strong>, ie as correction signal or portability to other machines, and involve considerable <strong>investment return</strong>, allowing savings of inputs and the cost of opportunity to work with a third party.

Plantium today brings the possibility of calculating the period of return on investment when purchasing an autopilot system with SBOX7 display and different corrections signals.

For example, those who works 2000 hectares of soybean and evaluate the possibility of acquiring an autopilot SteerDD for harvest today can know that this equipment will pay for itself in two campaigns, so it is a highly recoverable and very convenient investment. This benefit is increased because the possibility to move their Plantium team to another machine, either for planting or other activity, causing greater savings and recovering the investment faster.

Another example is for those who pulverizes their own 1000 hectares of soybean with SteerDD EDIF and automatic sections cut. The recovery of investment is given only in two seasons.

A final example is for who that sow 1000 hectares of soybean, with average yields expected in 30 quintals / ha and fertilization at planting, and acquires a correction signal PlantiumRTX-4, will achieve the recovery of the investment in about 3 campaigns.

The combination of productive situations can change, but there are always savings. This leads us to believe that the benefits at productivity and economics of an autopilot adoption is not only a low-risk investment, but also an investment of quick recovery for different production systems.
