In 2019, a guy at my work told me that his cousin, who was significantly more rural than him, was working on plotting all his fields with drones so he could could largely automate harvesting as well as engage in targeted fertilizing, pesticide and herbicide application. Same person also apparently was running a (legal) grow operation out of a big barn that they were trying to make carbon neutral with on-site renewables.

Folks in ‘rural’ trades can be very high tech if they know how it’ll make them money.

This mostly depends on the farm size. How rural the area is isn't that much important in terms of how high tech a farm is.
