Ever since I have been able to use Garmin GPS I can now grow crops more effectively than before. You might wonder to yourself How can some Podunk farmer grow better with GPS? Well, first of all, were not all like that, and secondly the trick is how you manage it on your land. With my Garmin GPS mapping and my tractors and planters using it I can fit more crop onto one field than ever before, by making precision decision, as I say. First of all lets say you have yourself a nice mapped out chunk of land that is the shape of a square, and it is a total of 10 acres of land. Well, the old way was planting by eye, or trying to drive in a straight line for reference lines and then doing it. Of course there was nothing really wrong with that, but small deviations created what could only be described as the butterfly effect.
In basic terms it means small actions at the beginning could lead to large results at the end. If one of the workers I hire goes off and changes less than a degree in the angle of the crop line, it doesnt seem like much but down the line it could equal to a whole line of crop being abandoned because it cant be fit into the parcel of land.
