Yes. There are plenty of things that need to be spread on farms. I have a friend who made huge piles of bio-char for spreading in his hops field. Hops fields are full of poles supporting the trellis that supports the plants, so there's a lot to dodge. Doing it with the tractor bucket required a lot of manual touch up after. Also, in landscaping and construction, the ability to move soil, mulch, and gravel autonomously would be extremely helpful. Spreading it evenly would be icing on the cake.
