One of the highlights of this year's AG CONNECT Expo in Atlanta was a keynote speech given by General Wesley Clark. He spoke about the need for fuel conservation and the lessening of our dependence on foriegn oil.
This, of course, is an issue of concern for farmers as well as builders and designers of agricultural machinery. Farmers consume a lot of energy collectively in the production of our nations food supply. The machine builders look for ways to design in energy efficiency.
The keynote address was given at the Case IH exhibit which was rather impressive. One of the most impressive machines on display at the event was a giant cotten picker.
