But what I would urge people to do is Op Center has a lot of this good data.
So I'll start by saying that, that if you go out into Op Center, you can grab a bunch of these figures to try and justify it for yourself.
But
As you list stuff out, the time savings is a huge piece.
Time saving, you know, that's one number, but it then leads to saving on depreciation, saving on labor costs potentially, depending on how you're running the farm.
Grain loss, it can help with that consistency as well.
Not only because harvest settings automation should be doing a good job of getting your grain loss under control, but like I talked about, it's more consistent throughput through the machine.
And so that itself will lead to lower grain loss as well.
Exactly.
No matter if you check it 30 times day one or one time at day 30, that's totally fine.
That's fine.
Okay.
Yeah.
So those are a couple.
But I often, as I have these conversations with dealers and customers around this decision to...
to kind of invest of themselves in this solution, it should prove itself not only from a time perspective, productivity, throughput, fuel efficiency, but there's also weigh the other side, right?
Did the automation cause an issue that caused you a little bit of downtime?
We want you to count that, right?
We want to count that against it.
If something weird happened, some fluky thing happened, we want you to tally that up and say, hey, it was still worth it, right?
