What I think is going to be most interesting is companies/banks/insurances agencies being able to gleam information without going through the farmers at all. Not by subverting them and going to the machinery manufacturers, which i

Can you link to any of the work you've done, or any articles that explore similar ideas? I'm interested in reading more. We've been using variable rate to tailor nutrient applications for a few years now[0], and have started
