Well, yeah, we're putting a 21st century spin on a very old problem. We go out there, we map your fields with a drone, we create a high resolution map, and then we can plot all the rocks on the map, show you the sizes that there are, the estimated time it will take to pick the rock, and we even will give you the path to follow to pick those rocks in that amount of time.

You know, we have all this technology in agriculture. Why has not anybody put any technology towards picking rocks?

They were done picking rocks. And one thing we've had now with the mapping technology, we've had guys be able to go pick rock at night. You know, you've never been able to do that, so we're expanding that window that we can actually work now. So that's kind of been a big change for people, too.
