There’s an ap for everything- even ag. Think of this: without ever leaving the field, a farmer can pull out his smart phone and identify insects, crop diseases, or even assess the nutrient value of manure. He can also calculate crop maturity, seed planting to attain the highest yield, and pesticide droplet size and potential pesticide drift.
Technology is spiraling, even in the wide open spaces.
A long list of ag apps is available from AmyBickel. Bickel has reported on Kansas agriculture for over 15 years, and is the editor of Kansas AgLand.
