SCOTTSDALE, AZ, Feb. 12, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - For farmers who thought autosteer was beyond their reach, AgJunction (TSX:AJX), the Autosteering Company™, offers new Wheelman™ lineup of simple, affordable autosteering systems every farm can benefit from.

The new lineup from AgJunction includes the Wheelman Pro and Wheelman Flex powered by the Whirl ™ app.

Starting at just $3995, each Wheelman comes with everything a farmer needs for easy installation and operation (install kit, IMU, smart antenna, universal cable), at no additional cost. And, the Wheelman Flex offers an additional benefit allowing farmers to easily move and use the autosteer system between other equipment, further reducing the overall cost of outfitting a farming operation with autosteering.

The Whirl app, the brains behind Wheelman autosteering, is a free download for iOS and Android devices. Whirl allows farmers to use their existing smart devices (phone, tablet, etc.) as the display, eliminating the need to buy a custom display, which can easily cost up to $8,000.

"We believe that all farmers should prosper, and with autosteering, farmers can reduce input costs and increase yields," said Jeff Morris, AgJunction chief marketing officer. "Farmers that have invested in Precision Ag equipment continue to experience lower cost and higher yields, helping them cope with the effects of higher tariffs and lower grain prices. With the new Wheelman lineup, our mission is to bring the benefits of Precision Ag, currently available to only the largest farm operations, to the millions of smaller farms around the world."

Farmers can purchase a complete Wheelman system today at www.HandsFreeFarm.com. Just select a tractor from more than 850 makes and models supported today, select the Wheelman system, and purchase. It will be shipped to your doorstep in a couple of days. No subscriptions needed.

"I've been in the market for a guidance system for my 1978 tractor for a period of time. All the major brands were more expensive than I wanted to spend on that old tractor," said Chris Denton, who farms near La Denton, Kentucky. "When I discovered Wheelman could be purchased for half the money and I could install it right out of the box, I was sold!"

Farmers attending this year's National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville, Kentucky, can see a demo of Wheelman at work. It will be on display at the Machinery Pete Update on Thursday, February 14 at 10 a.m. in South Wing B 105 of the convention center. Interested farmers can also talk with Jeff Morris at the Machinery Pete Update.
