二元logit分析被用来确定全球定位系统（GPS）的指导系统，在11个中南和东南部州棉农采用的影响因素。结果表明，采用更有可能是那些谁已经采用了其他精确的农业实践，并已使用计算机进行农场管理。此外，更年轻和更富裕的农民更有可能收养。拥有较大农场和相对较高产量的农民也更有可能采用。教育不是农民决定采用全球定位系统导航系统的一个重要因素。
Binary logit analysis was used to identify the factors influencing adoption of Global Positioning System (GPS) guidance systems by cotton farmers in 11 Mid-south and Southeastern states. Results indicate that adoption was more likely by those who had already adopted other precision-farming practices and had used computers for farm management. In addition, younger and more affluent farmers were more likely to adopt. Farmers with larger farms and with relatively high yields were also more likely to adopt. Education was not a significant factor in a farmer's decision to adopt GPS guidance systems.
