Actually, elecengin said that.

I'm far more optimistic on these problems, as I've seen many of them solved.

Lettuce picking (and other ground crops shortly) thinned and picked by machine? Check.

Strawberry sorting for plant quality? Check.

Strawberry harvesting? Check.

Harvesting of tree crops? Check.

Orange grove navigation by tractors? Check.
