  Bob Pohlman, a field reporter for the Mercer County Farm Service Agency in Celina, looks at a hand-held unit used to operate a Global Positioning System during a training session at Bunge Park recently. The GPS backpack technology is now being used by the Mercer County FSA office. The object protruding from the backpack is the antennae that picks up satellite signals. The hand unit is shown at left.
