Is technology racing ahead faster than your flip phone can keep up? Damian Mason sits down with a panel of XtremeAg voices and guest Chase Garner from SprayTec to dig into the so-called “technology chasm” on the farm. From drones doing stand counts to tractors that practically run themselves, the crew breaks down what it means to be an early adopter, a laggard—or somewhere in between.
They talk ROI, efficiency gains, generational shifts, and whether some tech upgrades are truly worth the hype (spoiler: the foam marker may have had its day). Along the way, we hear some hilarious stories, heartfelt memories, and candid truths about how fast ag is evolving. This one’s got everything: cotton pickers, planter tech, auto-steer, and even some fashion designers from Seattle.
So, are you bridging the gap—or widening it? Find out in this high-tech, high-fun episode of The Granary.
