=================== Tama ka jan boss migs. maraming pwedeng gawin for automation and embedded programming na applicable for agriculture, sana i-enclude ito sa agricultural engineering courses na hindi lang tractor operation ang focus. Egs. drip irrigation and sprinlker system, soil chemistry monitoring system, etc. maybe an application that can be triggered by a lowly 5110 is kewl wherein an embedded device can send a txt message to a farmer delivering his vegetables in Divisoria to turn on the sprinkler system which also can be done via txt! btw im an agribuness major, not LB though, but studied there too. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
