Yeah, I think you flew the field and had the map back to me in a day or two. It took about three days to turn the map, and then you have that map on your cell phone. I think you drove around and found a few of them.
I know Tanner actually used the map on their farm. They actually have a rock picker. Yep, they have a rock picker, so they use that option.

We have an example here at the show where we had a farmer in northwest Minnesota who mapped their field. There were 1,600 rocks in a 600-acre field. They went out and picked it the old-fashioned way just to kind of outsmart the technology, right? I mean, that's what we all want to do. We've got to see it work. So we went back and remapped the field after they picked it their way.

There was still almost 1,100 rocks in the field. They missed 65% of the rocks. And part of that is just being able to see from the drone, you're seeing from 121 feet above the ground, and you can see straight down versus looking for them.

And it's funny, you can tell they started from the south end of the field, because it's a better job in the south end, and by the time they got to the north end, it's a lot less of a job.
