Precision Agriculture World Wide Will Feel Affects of US FCC Ruling
Precision Farming Could Conceivably Be Affected by the FCC
If the Fed. Communications Commission extends a waiver to a group attempting to implement wireless broadband across the nation, the Global Positioning System as we all know it might be severely influenced.
A company called LightSquared, which is backed by the Harbinger Capital Partners hedge fund, is working to launch a wireless broadband network. Their goal is to build out a national 4G subordinate earthly part (ATC) network that would cover 260 million folks in the United States by 2014.
In Jan, the FCC granted LightSquared a conditional waiver, which enables them to proceed with the project in a limited fashion while a working group conducts research to figure out whether the LightSquared network and GPS can coexist with no interference.
This could have a serious impact on many technologies, particularly those in precision agriculture that depend on GPS technology for all sorts of things from planting seed to the focused application of fertilizer and pesticides on crops. Interference with this technology could end in heftier costs for seed, fertilizer, fuel and in the end labor.
