I work for a Deere competitor. We have a closed-loop system where we implement our tech in the cab, the farmer (securely) uploads their planting information to us in real-time, and we advise on yield management. As in - ways for them to make more money and use less chemicals and water during the growing season. It doesn't go to Wall Street or anyone else.
We also benefit because that data goes back to the seed scientists and advises on which hybrids work in which environment and which do not.
We use LTE and Wifi to get this data home but having Starlink in the cab is a nice idea. Especially in parts of the world (you mean there are farms outside the US?) where connectivity is minimal. Everyone here bitching about the right-to-repair issue, right or wrong, misunderstood the press release.
