Farmers and Computers- Andrea Tholen


The Hathaway family uses computers on their farm. Kim Hathaway describes the system. "It's a database system that we can use to go to the board of trades. We can go down and see what corn is trading for right now. We just got the upgrade system about three years ago that has the weather." The farmer's can use computers to get information on farm markets, weather, and other informaiton useful to them about farming. Researchers are currently working on incorporating more technology through computers into farming, and there should be many more technological advances in the near future wtih our world becoming so based around computers and technology.
