And also, why on earth do you need satellites for agriculture?? Surely when ploughing/harvesting you get to the end of the field you turn around and start heading back on a parallel course?
Using satellite pictures and other methods , you can see which areas of your fields are most productive for agriculture , fertiliser is spread in differing densitys by way of GPS guidance of the tractor thereby trying to maximise the crop yield.
