Wireless Data Transfer: 

John Deere's JD Link program provides the ability to share data with other partner organizations. This format is supported on the Green Star 3 (GS3) and Green Star 4 (GS4) models. Files must be available in the Operations Center in an unarchived state to be shared to Corteva Fields.
