I met Rafael Costa at the SAP Sapphirenow conference in Orlando last week.
Rafael was there demonstrating how his company Stara, a Brazilian agricultural machine manufacturer was using the Internet of Things to help farmers, increase yields and make their planting and spreading far more efficient.
I thought it was a fascinating story, so I invited him on the show to share it with you.
You can find out more about Stara at the Stara website
