There is a very good article about the use of GPS (Global Positioning Satellite)
in the February 1994 issue of 'Professional AgriCenter Dealer' journal. . .
it covers a fertilizer company in my community who is using GPS to do site-
specific farming and is having great results.

If you can't find the journal, you can contact the provider of its service
(American Cyanimid) or its publisher (RW Communications) at 202-628-5611.

If you want to talk to the people who are using the GPS system, I can get you
their phone numbers. . .I'm sure they would be able to give you info.
