Video: Five Patent Filings from John Deere and What They Might Mean for the Future of Precision Agriculture

This week marks the start of something new at Upstream Ag Insights: a monthly video series focused on timeless concepts and ideas that help professionals better understand the world of agribusiness.

Each episode will run about 15–25 minutes and dig into topics that remain relevant long term.

The first video, embedded below, explores John Deere’s patent filings in precision agriculture — what they reveal about Deere’s priorities, where the company is investing, and how it’s shaping the next decade of on-farm technology.

The first few recordings have been a learning process to dial in lighting, sound, and overall production and visual quality, which is not where I want it to be yet, but will continue to improve with each release.

If there’s something specific you’d like to see in future videos, I’d value your input — reach out directly at [email protected].
