WHAT'S
Computer software
Harris Technical Systems, Inc., an
affiliate of Harris Laboratories, has
introduced 18 different AgDisk
microcomputer software programs
for agricultural operations.
Each AgDisk program is designed
to provide farmers and ranchers with
information they need to make
critical management decisions. Pro-
ducers can examine hundreds of dif-
ferent management alternatives by
changing inputs and creating "what
if" situations.
AgDisk software is available
through selected Apple, IBM and
Texas Instruments dealers including
many Valcom, ComputerLand and
Team Electronics stores. Programs
designed to run on Radio Shack,
Commodore, Zenith, Osborne and
DEC Rainbow 100 microcomputers
will be available later this year.
Each program comes complete
with a comprehensive operating
manual. Costs range from $75 to
$700 depending upon the size and
complexity of the program. In-
dividual operating manuals are
available separately.
More information on the AgDisk
software and HTS can be obtained
from Harris Technical Systems, Inc.,
