They already use software. I called a pecan orchard in the southern part of my state. When I asked when they would be ready to harvest they gave me a specific date. When questioned she said they take measurements of the nuts, a few other inputs, and their software gives them an ideal harvest date. They roasted the nuts themselves so they could give you a very accurate ship date early in the season.
