    I agree you can **** up the computer to do whatever you want. Deere is one of the worst but watch the company on the edge they are harvesting way more info on a greater scale. Your being played big time.

      I respond to no surveys, statscan, private anything. Only place that has any idea of my yeilds is Sask Crop insurance but they have no data how I got them.

        Real time on my antique is a calculator operation... Tank size in bushels divided by acres covered. Field averages are truckloads hauled home divided by acres in field. Cross check it with what I haul to the elevator and I'm usually out by no more than 2%. Close enough.

          Sometimes for exercise in the hamster wheel in my head I don't even use a calculator....

              Interesting no one in Agriville uses any data stealing equipment.

                That is interesting. Maybe Wienerville is mostly for Grumpy Old Men.

                I'll bet average over 50.

                  I think the yield monitor is calibrated at the factory, no?

                  the canola ran 70 this year

                    Knowing the yield doesn't tell anybody anything so that doesn't worry me.

                    But Farmers Edge is right there in the field with guys telling them what to put on, tracking it, testing it, documenting it and letting you take the risk while they bundle it all up to sell one day.

                      Interesting that no one has yet admitted to using it after being called a naïve dumass to start the thread...
