DeKalb Area Agricultural Heritage Association’s (DAAHA) spring Agricultural Heritage Program has been moved to the evening of March 27th.  The program is open to the general public. Admission is free.  

Steve and Norm discuss the process of developing a yield monitor used during the
processing of crops. The yield monitor measures pressure on an actuating arm to
determine the amount of clean yield. This data can be correlated with other data to plot a yield map for a field.
