PTx Trimble Wins Coveted Davidson Prize for Autonomous Grain Cart

PTx Trimble, formed in 2024 by AGCO and Trimble, is proud to announce OutRunTM, the first commercially available autonomous retrofit grain cart solution on the market, has been awarded the prestigious Davidson Prize at Commodity Classic 2025 in Denver, Colorado.

The award, presented by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) and the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), recognizes breakthrough innovations in agricultural engineering that improve efficiency, sustainability and productivity. OutRun was recognized for its ability to help farmers maximize yield and combat the labor shortage many farmers are facing around the world.

"OutRun was designed as a cost-effective way to help farmers with labor issues, allowing operators to run both the combine and the grain cart during critical harvest times," said Andrew Sunderman, vice president of product & customer experience, PTx. "As the latest in PTx Trimble's commitment to its retrofit-first strategy for autonomy, OutRun allows farmers to use autonomous technology to harvest at the optimal time to maximize yield without needing to find experienced grain cart operators, saving time and expenses."
