2015 Farm Evaluations & Decisions
‐ Stand evaluation (wet spring ‐‐‐ replant?)
‐ Soil Compaction (pinch rows, machine paths)
‐ N status in corn (Side‐dress: YES / NO)
‐ Disease (Fungicide: YES / NO)
‐ Hybrid selection and placement
Investment cost versus paycheck… $2/ac to $35/ac

Precision Ag Evolutionary Phases
• The Start ‐ Early Pioneers ‐Mid‐1990’s• Technology Settlers ‐ Late‐1990’s and early 2000’s• Efficiency – Boom of Mid‐ to late‐2000’s• Automation ‐ 2010• Connectivity ‐ 2012• Digital Agriculture (decision agriculture) ‐ Today & Tomorrow
Has been a bit painful over this stretch but has brought opportunities.

Producer
Data Exchange for Growers
Data will need to move through multiple organizations and each organization will need different data sources.

Types of Data
1) Agronomic – yield, as‐applied, as‐planted, etc.2) Machine (CAN) – engine parameters, tractor status variables,
implement mode & functions‐ CAN can also provide agronomic data
3) Production ‐ Information within home office, weather, notes, etc.4) Remote Sensed Imagery

BIG DATA in Agricultural Production
Refers to the use of technology and advanced analytics for processing data in a useful and timely way. Big data may significantly affect many aspects of the agricultural industry, although the full extent and nature of its eventual impacts remain uncertain.
• Public‐level big data represent records that are collected, maintained, and analyzed through publicly funded sources.
• Private big data represent records generated at the production level and originate with the farmer or rancher.

New Age Business Models
• Notice these companies refer to “Users” not “Customers”• Income generating operations are unclear or kept offline• Basic model relies on data being fed in to the “system” at zero cost• There is no revenue sharing intended back to the providers of data
‐ Free Email Clients‐ Free Web Browsers‐ Free Search Engines‐ Free Social Media Site

The “Value” of Information is Changing….• Do not ignore the mountain of real‐time data being generated / collected.
• Make annual copies• Other new applications using farmer data are emerging
• “Trust a Data Steward”• Commit to learning more• Commit to being better…more competitive & improving your profitability!
