Deanna Kovar, precision ag marketing director discusses the manufacturer’s push for agronomic dealer development and moving on from the Precision Planting deal.
It’s been an eventful few years for John Deere, and particularly its Integrated Solutions business, from the OEM expanding its precision farming partnerships to its highly publicized attempt to acquire Precision Planting.
Jack Zemlicka was the Managing Editor for Precision Farming Dealer. Since he joined Lessiter Media's Ag Division in 2012, he has covered precision farming practices, products and trends.

Farmwave founder and CEO Craig Ganssle says there’s been a lot of “over-promise and under-deliver” in ag technology. But that hasn’t been the case with his company’s autonomous harvest loss technology, and he has the results to prove it. The multi-camera system counts grain loss in real time and customers who use it are seeing an increase of 3-8 bushels per acre in corn and soybeans.
