I live in Denmark and our Danish government has by law decided that every business (including farmers) in the country must by 1st of Nov. have a digital inbox. All information from authoraties and public service will thereafter only be sent by email to this inbox which you will logon via a protected digital signature. This means that a lot of senior farmers who have no internet access and do not know how to use a computer will be left in trouble and it may cause some to give up farming I think. Not all of them have children or grandchildren who can help them out and even if they do who wants all of this personal information shared with their family? We even have spots in the country where just a slow internet connection via old copper telephone line is available and I think websites tend to require speedier connections because the designers are used to good conditions so they put a lot of pictures and stuff on them causing them to hardly work on a slow connection.
We have so far been forced to do our fertilizing reports, spraying reports, herd reports, and applications for all sorts of grants and subsidies on the web.
Last year another rule was introduced: Any payment over DKK 10,000 = USD 1,800 must be a digital transfer. You cannot do it by an ordinary check or cash anymore.
A couple of years ago all public offices started to reject all paper invoices. Everyone who has supplied goods or work to some public institution (could be snow plowing for the county(to make this tractor related)) must send their invoice by email.
I was just wondering, is such or similar regulation common practice in other countries/states and how has it been accepted or would it be accepted if implemented?

For several years I had been driving by a farm house on the west side of Indianapolis that had a John Deere combine parked in high weeds in a lot behind the house. The gentleman no longer farmed because the entire area was developed with housing and light industry. I had stopped several times and knocked on the door but no one would answer. My curiosity was up and I wanted to contact the owner. I wanted to see what he planned to do with the combine.
