It's pretty obvious what the industry for oil looked like for manufacturing, right?

For automobiles.

I understood that completely.

If you told me industry 4.0 or industry 5.0 for farming and ag, I'd be like, is that big data round three?

Is that robotic arms?

Is that floating IoT?

Is that an expansion of available telecommunications networking that didn't happen before in rural areas?

Like, is it...

burden sharing for like I don't know satellite applications where I know that there's like farms in India where they all share different technical like capacity because not one farm can own it and they do that for like insurance right so that the satellite can come in and say hey we got all this drone footage which is shared cost but now we can actually confirm that this drought happened or whatever like is that the revolution that we're on like which one is or is it depending on the sector I

Well, that's why I love your sector.

I put on this like research hat and just look at it from afar.

And I'm just so curious, you know, if I put on a researcher hat and kind of analyze it a little bit, it's like, who is actually determining the drivers and the barriers?

Because not only do you have those regional differences, but those regional differences are exacerbated by ownership models.

So of course, in Europe, you have small family owned farms.

And in the US, you have these like major conglomerates and monopolies.

And so the rate of that evolution for data alone, you know, we have millions of data points a day.

You've got, they can measure the dew and the sunlight and the temperature and the soil and the bacteria, and they can isolate cattle and they can put these, you know, insemination over here.

Like they have so much data for all of this, but I don't like creating an over reliance on monopolies because then you have fewer single points of failure.

And that's a point I've made in cybersecurity a lot of the times that I learned from nuclear and it applies to almost every other industry.

So at what point does tech make things so sustainable, efficient, productive that you have these massive conglomerates that buy everyone else out or are so far exceeding the curve that their products or whatever are just so much better, so much more efficient, more profitable, whatever the driver is in that case, that you're starting to see everyone else, their operations diminish or get bought up, that you create these monopolies.
