Blue River Technology

Basics

• A Company that developed a "Per-Plant-Spraying" attachment for trailers
• It allowed for cameras to asses the crops, and spray precisely which plants needed fertilizer, or spray pesticide/herbicide ONLY on the affected plant
• Thus offered vast savings, as well as (in theory at least, need numbers, as the sheer scale may overway this) less Agricultural Pollution
