Naive question: why can't A/B testing work by implementing the tech on a few fields and not on others?


Farms and farmers have been doing A/B testing for generations with seeds, fertilizers, weed/pest control, feed, medicines, and on and on. And it's a PITA. Running 2 different, smaller, operations takes a lot more time and money than just one larger operation.

My wife is 100% engineer and it took me 6 years to even try something different on our (her) farm.
