Agri-Trend coach Felix Weber spoke at a meeting of the 4-H West Luther Field Crops Club on Aug. 2.
Weber discussed the services he provides to farmers and gave a flight demonstration of his battery-operated plane.
Controlled by computer and a global positioning system, the plane captured multiple aerial photos of Weber’s farm. The photos were compiled into one large image, and, when paired with field scouting, gave a precise analysis of areas within a field.
The club’s next meeting was set for Aug. 22, at Husky Farm Equipment, in Alma.
