If anyone will be at the Precision Ag conference in Denver next month, I would be interested in getting together for some informal discussion on what the most pressing training needs are for consultants. Let me know if you will be there and are interested.

I Just wanna know can there be a technology for automation of farm activities which will be computer programmed. Which will make the machines to carry tillage, weeding or spraying of plant protection/nutrition chemicals etc...which can monitor all the farm related activities.

Need for such technology is of immense importance in INDIA where there is labour shortage issues coupled with small farm holdings.

Can anyone answer to this issue?

Yes, we use  technology like this in Russia.

It's based from two parts: hardware and software. So hardware - it's some GPS\GSM terminal that have connections for external sensors and can collect and transmit data to some server.

Software collect data from all terminals, visualise it and make reports and notices for you.

I can reccomend for you next vendor of software -  http://gurtam.com/en/. It's hase English interface, based on web-servers, so you can rent it.

The closest place, where  you can find t nice and cheep GPS terminals that can work with that software  - it's China. The list of terminals you can find there.

Well, i'm sorry, i'm not see completely your request. This'is technology for full monitoring all proceses, but not for automation.  Full working automotion i think exist only in prototypes, and not ready yet.
