Debertin* *University of Kentucky Staff Paper 473, October, 2013. David L. Debertin is professor emeritus of agricultural economics at the University of Kentucky. These are the notes from the retirement seminar on computing technology employed in agricultural economics presented by Dr. Debertin in April, 2013. These notes and photographs describe the history of computing in agricultural economics over a period of over 40 years from 1969-2013. Staff Papers are published without formal review.

This paper traces some of the remarkable changes that have taken place since the early 1960s, a period of about 50 years. Changes have occurred not only with respect to the computational ability of computers, but also to massive increases in their storage capability, making it possible to do things that could not have been even dreamed of only a few years ago. All of this is presented in the context of what it meant for research, teaching and extension programs in agricultural economics, with photos of much of the hardware that was employed along the way.
