An early adopter of precision farming practices, Roger Wenning remembers using his Massey Ferguson combine in the 1980s to weigh grain as it offloaded and then tracked yield patterns with an early monitor.
When it comes to precision technology, Wenning keeps it pretty basic. But the tools he does use play an essential role in keeping his operation efficient and productive. One of Wenning’s main tools is his Loup Electronics yield monitor.
There was plenty of technology on display at the World Dairy Expo in Madison, Wis., a few weeks ago. Farm Equipment editor Mike Lessiter caught up with Monarch Tractor’s John Issacson and got his take on the top 5 applications in autonomy right now.
