Precision Ag Surveys: 2015 vs 2013

By: Dr. Bruce Erickson, David Widmar | June 1, 2015

When planning for the 2015 Preci­sion Agriculture Dealer Survey, it became clear that huge leaps had been made in the industry since the previous survey. Just since 2013 exponential changes had occurred and resulted in whole segments, previously not considered in the survey, coming to the forefront of agriculture’s attention. The two most obvious were unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and Big Data. In planning for the survey, it was quite surprising how much change had happened over two years.
