Variable-Rate Fertilizer Applications

K-State precision agriculture economist Terry Griffin is joined by a gerontologist from the Arkansas Colleges of Health Education, LaVona Traywick. They cooperated on a recent study of variable-rate fertilizer applications, and why farmers have been slow to adopt that technology over the many years that it's been around. There are both economic and generational components to their findings, and this research says a great deal about how the different farming generations embrace precision technology.
