The sun rises over the cereal fields near Dijon as Valentin Gransagnes begins another long day on his farm. Wheat, spring and winter barley, mustard—every crop demands careful attention. Before adopting modern technology, covering every part of his fields meant repeated passes, constant line adjustments, and long hours in the tractor. Fatigue and inefficiency were part of the routine.

Valentin wanted a smarter way to manage his farm: a system that could drive the tractor along precise tracks automatically, reduce repeated work, and fit naturally into the machinery he already used every day. 

That’s when Sveaverken, together with our local dealer Intrax, stepped in.

Precision at Work: How Intrax and Sveaverken Transform Field Operations

For farmers in France, reliable technology is only part of the story — having a trusted local partner makes all the difference. Intrax, working closely with Sveaverken, provides expert guidance, on-site support, and practical advice to ensure autosteering systems are seamlessly integrated into each farm’s workflow. Their deep understanding of local machinery and field practices allows farmers like Valentin Gransagnes to get the most out of Sveaverken’s precision technology from day one.

With support from Intrax, Valentin installed Sveaverken F100 Auto Steer System. The setup was fast and intuitive — no major tractor modifications were needed — and soon the tractor was fully calibrated and ready for the fields.

 The benefits were immediately clear:

• Precise passes with ±2.5 cm accuracy ensured no overlaps or missed lines, whether sowing, applying fertilizer, or harvesting.
• Time and resource savings: Valentin estimates saving 10–13% in daily work, fuel, seed, and input usage without extra effort.
• ISOBUS integration brought implement data and navigation onto a single screen, simplifying operations and minimizing manual adjustments.
• Automatic U-turns made headland turns effortless, letting Valentin focus on his implement instead of steering.

“Today, I wouldn't say I can’t live without it, but almost — because I use it every day,” Valentin says. For him, the autosteering system is no longer just a piece of equipment; it has become part of the rhythm of the farm, helping each pass stay straight, smooth, and predictable.

Reliable Support and Continuous Improvement

Technology alone isn’t enough. Intrax’s local expertise ensured installation and calibration matched the farm’s schedule perfectly. Sveaverken continuously refines its autosteering systems with ongoing software updates and responsive technical support, giving farmers confidence that their equipment will perform reliably day after day.

Valentin’s experience reflects the approach Sveaverken takes across France — and globally: combining precise autosteering systems with expert local support to integrate seamlessly into farmers’ routines, support long-term planning, and make daily fieldwork more efficient and predictable.
