How much fuel can it save the operator? Just as your field is different from your neighbors, so too will your mileage vary. “But just know that there will be fuel savings over what you did prior to using the IntelliSense.” But it was the time savings the IntelliSense offers that struck Littlefield as been much more important. While he extolled operator increased productivity and minimizing crop leftover, he noted, felt that the ease of learning how to operate it was something that should be played up. “Like it or not, the agricultural industry is plagued by high turnover of personnel,” related Littlefield. “Some of the feedback we received during our demonstrations was that they were pleased at the short learning curve. Often enough, they said, that after spending the time to train someone on machinery, they would leave, and then they would have to start all over again to train another person. “But rather than be stuck having to train and retain personnel for hours at a go, you could put a first-timer behind the wheel of a tractor with IntelliSense, and within an hour they get it,” he smiled. The IntelliSense only had its debut at tradeshows this past February, but it is available for purchase now.
