Cost of Manual Work — Agriculture and Food

See what repetitive manual work is costing Agriculture and Food teams each year — where field records (planting dates, applications, yields) live on paper, in the agronomist's notebook, or in an app no one has logged into since spring.

What this means for Agriculture and Food

  • Field records (planting dates, applications, yields) live on paper, in the agronomist's notebook, or in an app no one has logged into since spring.
  • Weather and commodity-price volatility hits margin every season but hedging strategy is still gut-feel for most mid-size operations.
  • Equipment data from JD Operations Center, Climate FieldView, and AGCO sits in vendor silos that do not talk to each other.

Where it pays to act

  • Yield prediction and variable-rate input prescription using satellite, drone, and soil-sensor data.
  • Weather and commodity-price forecasting for marketing decisions.
