Tech aficionados and leading brands from around the globe descended on Las Vegas January 9th through 12th to see and show off their latest tools and toys at the 2024 Consumer Electronics Show. Artificial intelligence and autonomous machines were just the beginning, as more than 25 categories were represented — everything from sustainability to cryptocurrency.

DTN’s Dan Miller was at the show to cover the agriculture tools that were on display, from John Deere, Kubota, Bobcat, and more. He’ll share what he saw and discuss what he learned from the companies themselves about what might be in store later this season and beyond for growers interested in exploring the cutting edge of equipment technology. Plus, he’ll cover Deere’s newly announced partnership with SpaceX’s Starlink to provide connectivity to more farmers in the US and beyond, and clue us in on the latest on pricing, electric tractors, and data aggregation.
