It took far less than artificial satellite to be successful farmer 1000 years ago... Other than that - having new technology and satellites for helping is a great thing.

That's so cool. If you look at farmer's like millenial farmer and stuff who run big farms and use big equipment, they use GPS and navigational aids to help them track things, stuff like this is exactly what guys like him will use if it makes his farm better in some way
