CES is the world’s largest showcase of technology and electronics, held every year in sunny Las Vegas. In the last decade or so, ag tech companies, and especially ag equipment companies, have been attending this event to show off their latest hardware and software tools, and so DTN has also attended to keep up with the technological forecast on display.
DTN Progressive Farmer’s Senior Editor Dan Miller is fresh off his tour of the week-long event, and brings us the latest about what leading companies are bringing to the table in terms of innovation in 2025.
Today, he’ll dive into offerings from John Deere, Kubota, and others, who demonstrated their freshest takes on autonomous and electrified farm implements. Robots big and small were well represented across the agricultural cohort, many of which operate using cutting-edge software and artificial intelligence. Dan will also share his takes on the show stopping tools that growers might look forward to seeing at the Farm Machinery Show and Commodity Classic later this year.
Then we’ll dig into key themes around labor access, how tech companies think they might help farmers manage labor shortages, and the most “out there” aspects of the show in Dan’s eyes.
