It's strange that agriculture incurred so large losses, I would expect precision farming to rely on RTK (with relatively close reference base station at a fixed location). The article doesn't mention, but how immune or affected were base station corrected RTK positioning systems? It sounds a lot less dramatic if we can absorb such events with RTK base stations. That does add the extra dependency of network links to get the RTK correction stream, unless some day it is standardized to be broadcast locally on FM or so.
