Precision agriculture

Earlier, more precisely, for every animal in the barn.

Meaning Precision Ag is now finding a home in these hog barns.

When we come back, tariff tensions heat up with Canada while national diesel prices soared towards $6.

But is it fueling inflation? And 45Z Tax Credit took a step forward this week.

Thank you so much again.

Chip Moore, you can catch him every day 10 a.m. for Agritalk AM.

Well, there's a focus on precision ag here at Iowa State, but it's not just here at the university level.

They are taking it to ag teachers to open up doors for new career opportunities.

Will they come to an agreement before then that will even stop all of these threats? Will they do something that escalates it even further so that we do have to worry about our fertilizer and potash inputs as well? Another thing that may actually affect us is farm machinery.

because a lot of carts and um precision egg stuff goes back and forth between us and canada in the production of that so what is that going to do to the cost of some of our um precision ag equipment which is going to be an interesting conversation because with the input of extra money, I know all retailers in the ag sector are pretty excited about that and one of those retailers include those that sell farm equipment.

Yeah.

And that's a good point, because I know I had mentioned several times on this video is that the Maggie show and, you know, given given how the year has played out, I was sort of, you know, a little apprehensive that it might there might not be that much activity on the equipment side.

Hello, I'm Jane Cutahy.

This GRDC Grain Automate podcast series is led by the Society of Precision Agriculture Australia, or SPA, as part of the GRDC Grain Automate Initiative.

In this episode, we're exploring the critical role dealers play in bridging the gap between farm automation technology and real-world adoption with a couple of companies.

But first, we head to Western Australia, where Connor McGuckian runs the precision farming department across five branches of Boechman Machinery.

They kinda...

I feel like that makes them a lot more comfortable and, you know, able to acquire the, the concept of maybe potentially having an autonomous vehicle on farm at some point.

And, and a lot of that precision agriculture is being done by drones too, as I imagine at the moment.

Yeah.

genetically modified systems while much of the world has moved on, which means potential yield gains are being left on the table.

Artificial intelligence and precision farming bring large opportunities to make farming faster and more efficient, but there is also a lot of hype.

Information generated by artificial intelligence is not always correct and must be checked carefully.

Farmers need to know their own story before relying on it for decisions.

I'm with you.

The star player, which is Precision Ag, is in a massive slump, but the relief pitcher, the construction and forestry segment just threw a perfect game to save the quarter.

That is exactly what happened here.

The construction and forestry segment, or CNF, engineered a massive beat.

And that totally offset the slumping star player in your analogy.

Yeah, let's look at that drag on the business.

Production and precision ag.
