We saw a lot of great stuff here at the Precision Farming Dealer Summit this week, and right now here in the Technology Corner, I want to highlight some very interesting stuff that Professor John Fulton from the Ohio State covered during one of his keynote presentations, just about some of the top takeaways that he saw recently at Agritechnica.

"If you have not had the opportunity to go to Agritechnica, if you did not have an autonomous machine in your booth at Agritechnica this year, you weren't keeping up with the Joneses. Okay. It was one of my statements I made to a lot of people. Walking first, walking indoor at Agritechnic, if you did not have an electronic tractor or if you didn't have some kind of autonomous machine sitting in your booth, you were kind of behind the eight ball. But these things are real. Again, some of these are still under development, okay?"

"But I do want to show this, and I'm not picking on anyone in particular, but Deere, it was all about technology in their booth, okay? One of the facts is they did not have a John Deere planter in their booth this year. How about that? We talk about planners all the time. They had some other planting technology, but they didn't not have a John Deere planter in their boost this year, but they had all the technology."

And that's just the tip of the iceberg of what we've seen here this week at the Precision Farming Dealer Summit. Much more coming soon to precisionfarmingdealer.com.
