Longer term we are creating the network that puts autonomy to work within agriculture. All those cool ground robots, soil sampling technologies, imagery devices, smart pest traps, etc. are going to need a network to deploy and scale – that is where we come in.
“Our vision is to build a service network that puts autonomy to work in ag, starting with spray drone services.
