Comment Misleading, farmers are not dumb hicks (Score 1) 194
I have two uncles who are farmers- both earned agricultural degrees at Cornell and both of them were one of the first business people I knew that incorporated computers in their livelihood. They cows wore radio tags and had automated systems to control how much the cows were fed and tracked milk production in addition to a variety of other things that are a part of farming. This was in the 80's.
It is hard for me to imagine there are many successful farmers left that aren't technologically savvy.
