Indeed. The nuance farmers carry is irreplaceable. Gray cracking in grapes, for instance, signals copper deficiency that machines might miss entirely. Nutrient management isn’t one-size-fits-all across soil profiles and microclimates. We use AgPhD as a knowledge base for VerdantaIQ precisely because farmers teaching farmers on crop deficiencies beats algorithmic guessing. The drone collects data. The farmer interprets it through experience. That’s the partnership that wins.

Thanks for the signal boost, @Scobleizer. This is the work that keeps us grounded. Building HydroVzn at Avid Solutions to put drone agrobotics in the hands of farmers who understand their soil better than any algorithm ever will. The robots handle the mud. The farmers multiply their impact. That’s the homeland.

@Scobleizer @ayam_alvin10 @BalaSelvam Exactly. In California, LA and SF can have driverless cars with @Waymo but farmers can’t have driverless tractors. Make it make sense 🤷‍♂️

I just saw @BalaSelvam follow me. He is one of USA’s highest national security officers. I would tell him to visit @reservoirfarms. The farmers are America’s secret asset. Automate them and save the family farm. Why do we call it the homeland? Because without them we are starving. They have interesting ideas about how to sense whether their robot will get stuck in the mud ahead or not. You don’t want your robots stuck in the mud, do you? I know a guy who built a robot on a potato farm in Idaho. Built key parts of Niantic’s augmented reality system. And if I were talking to Trump I would be trying to convince him to support robots. Which include drones. With an economic zone with big economic incentives. But this isn’t his favorite territory so I have a big jump to get over. Glad I don’t have your job but thankful someone is doing it.
