Which is the most accurate GPS system for drilling and spraying etc ?

[Pilatus]

Irrespective of cost ,which is the most accurate form of GPS for planting and spraying etc agricultural crops(bearing in mind any system is only as good as the person operating it!!)
I ask the question ,as in our area I see some farms that I know use GPS for drilling guidance have more gaps /baulks/ovelaps/underlaps,on headlands in their drilling, than the ones that use the so say old fashioned disc/tine marker. The estate in our that uses RTK mast system looks superb for accuracy.

RTK is pretty much 1cm accuracy. The best you can get.

Most GPS problems are a result of someone not knowing how to use it correctly/set it up/adjust it as they go along. Rubbish in, rubbish out.

Set up correctly, and with a good man on the seat, you'll struggle to see any difference between any brand, or RTK signal.

Would that be the case when drilling across steep downland/wold land when implements crab downhill?

In that case you'd probably want to mount the antennae on the implement
