Yep thats about the size of it."Precision farming" Say your sprayer and fert. spreader work at 12m widths.(by definition they have got to both cover the same width) You have say a 4m seed drill. Pass number 1 all coulters are sowing. Pass 2 all coulters are sowing apart from 2 behind each of the tractor rear wheels. Pass 3 all coulters are sowing again, and so on. That leaves 2 unsown tracks in the middle of each 12 metre width for the sprayer/fert. spreader tractor to follow. Towards harvest the crops do tend tiller out and fill the tramlines in so no space is wasted. It is the norm over here and throughout Europe. As farms and fields get bigger 18, 24 and 36 metre tramlines are becoming common.
