Reiter/Driscoll's is incredibly progressive and tech savvy as a grower. Their research operation is truly first class. They are the only grower we've worked with that has writen their own API client without any assistance--pretty slick for a decades old company whose main expertise is in trucking, labor, land, and plants.

Your comment made me start reading about your company. Really cool stuff! Do you use drones or regular aircraft?

Ultimately we are platform agnostic: Once drones are economically efficient, reliable, safe, we'll happily transition to them. Until then, we'll use regular aircraft that have proven themselves as economical collection platforms.
