Spray rigs run over 2-4% of the crop. Our first paid field of summer season = .84% damage.On that alone, farmer gains back $7.65/acre. Might get to $10 by eoy. On 2000 acres, that's a farmer funding their retirement account this year.2% damage by large spray rig per acre on 60 bu beans = $13.20/acre loss..84% damage by us two days ago = $5.55We can talk about how lack of chemicals impact soil and crops later

Is the future goal to also have the ground covered between the rows?

No-till is a big challenge right there for small ground robots especially equipped with vision-based systems!

Can’t argue with those numbers. Are you building the robots?

All these claims about sub-inch accuracy out there. Notice I said "claims". Sub half-inch is where we run as much as possible. Matters when blades are spinning. We can still improve.

My farm last night. Grassfed cattle and grassfed sheep grazing together. We spent on the fence and will spend on solar water systems soon. We are grazing cropland year 'round and building soil until grain prices rise.

Looks like it's "Papaya week" here on the digital construct. I don't have a PhD in genetics, but an honest one taught me this decades ago. GMO and plant breeding are not the same. One crosses species, the other does not. GMO doesn't happen in nature, plant breeding does. Just know they are different and make your decisions on stance from there. GM Papayas were made by injecting parasite genetics into papayas. That doesn't happen in nature.

Most specialty crops don't have end rows. Broadacre crops do. So your turns need to be very tight or you damage a lot of crop. You don't get to make a wide arc turn in broadacre crops. We haven't seen anyone else do this and it's not a simple problem to solve. Requires serious power. Requires incredible precision. Requires a system that reacts to soil conditions. Our system does it whether we suddenly add 200 lbs of water suddenly or not. Let me know how your passenger car steers if you add over 1200 lbs to it suddenly...on loose soil...

Love what Market Wagon does. Extending the reach and profitability of "local" food. I gave this a lot of thought many years ago, and it is a tough nut to crack, but they have done it!

People are chasing all sorts of stories about food right now. No one cares about nutrient density until chemical density is ZERO. Today, it's a high bar. But with Henry bringing accountability and Greenfield bringing capability, you had better be stepping up to the plate or you can watch your brand fail if you are not preparing right now.

Modifying this to be more specific. We are in year 4 of paid field operations. So the baseline is in place and will start adding more features from here on out. 10000+ paid acres should happen this year. 100000+ paid acres should happen in 2025. Could be more, depends more on funding than anything else. We have more demand than we can service, including for our new features. Not to mention the next system that is coming. This is how we celebrate. (not really, but it gave us a laugh)
