To give you some perspective when I left the fertilizer business here in Central Michigan in 1999 the only monitor in most tractor cabs was the seed monitor. In combines maybe 2-3% of farmers had a yield monitor, probably 2-3X that in places like Illinois or Iowa.
I love it how people say farmers don't use technology!
I've read a lot of press where farmers are given as a prime example of people not using or comfortable with tech. The journalists writing it have no idea of what they're talking about. Yet it has become almost a meme.
