GPS tracking has made my work as a junior agronomist more effective.
Two years ago, while working in a walnut orchard, I had to check field coverage by physically following the tractors, which was impossible to do all the time across 150 hectares. The drivers would report their completed tasks, but I never fully knew if they had skipped any rows. It wasn't on purpose - we are all human and make mistakes.
After a year, I shifted my career to an apple orchard, where I can easily monitor both coverage and tractor speed from a distance - something that is very hard to control on-site.
Implementing this technology has made my work not only easier, but far more efficient.
In my country, Georgia, new technologies are adopted quite slowly, and people tend to be pretty skeptical. How is the situation in your countries?
