New Technology…Company’s collect data for farmers to get better yields. Will you contribute?

January 28, 2014

I ran across this story and found it interesting on how quickly new technology for farmers develops into new business directives. There is a new technology offered by ag business and seed companies that maps out ground soils and adjust seed types to soil types from the GPS in equipment. Sounds like a helpful idea for farmers to increase yields, however you may want to listen the NPR news story to get more information before you sign up.

See the story from Farms.com.  Should Farmers Give John Deere and Monsanto Their Data?
