Interesting reading thanks for the link
Milking robots are fairly common in my part of the world, and automated feeding starts to come for the full. GPS also comes slowly by. The drones will not be common for a long time

I know a guy who installed a computerized irrigation system. It runs off of moisture sensors, and each line has it's own microprocessor. It delivers exactly the right amount of moisture to the crop, and runs day or night. No wasted water, which he has to pay for.

I was talking to a farmer the other day and he was explaining how sophisticated the gps systems are already.

If you have a triangular field and plant a row along the angled side, when you start planting the straight rows and meet the angled row, it will turn off the planter boxes one at a time so you don't overlap planting.

They also take soil samples at different points in the field and log them by gps, then when the sprayer comes it will automatically adjust the spraying patterns at different points in the field.

Many of you probably already knew this, but I was impressed. I thought the gps just steered the tractor.
