I actually have agriculture experience. That's how I paid for college. You're absolutely right but I bet there's more than one AWS.

I think many people have heard of John Deere and Monsanto but what about McGregor? They may not be as big as AWS but even with Ag experience I bet there are bigger similar organizations.

I bet there are big custom harvest operations too. We had a two man operation on the Palouse but I heard stories about huge operations out of Texas that migrated through the midwest following harvest cycles.
