New autonomous farm wants to produce food without human workers

What frustrates me is that everyone is making their version of the wheel in their corner instead of collaborating.<p>Right now, VC money should go to other things like AI, supply chain integrated into production, blockchain etc.<p>And they must have farmers as partners. Farmers completely distrust tech because we are not included. I gave up trying. It’s like we speak different languages but when tech is trying to create produce for MY domain,isn’t my participation and input necessary?<p>I am particularly bummed because I applied to YC twice and it always comes back to finding a tech partner. My tech is farming. I know stuff your roboticist or engineer can’t dream of because we live that nightmare of crop failure or machines failing all the time.<p>At this point, I think I am going to write stories like sci fi or fantasy and maybe someone will realize my vision(or not..who knows..maybe it’s not the right fit, but I will never know) after I am gone. I really enjoy coming up with theoretical solutions because at this point, that’s all I can do.<p>I would have discouraged Iron Ox from that idea. Who transplants one at a time when technology exists to do thousands at a time? Why? I can’t even wrap my mind around this.
