Ben Becker doesn't come from an agriculture background but it doesn't mean he can't figure out how to help agriculture. 

Becker owns and operates Penguin Drones, in McFarland.  He's using his computer science background to program this technology for precision and efficiency.  Becker says when large ground rigs are hampered by wet fields, he can come in and supply responsible weed and insect control that reduces soil compaction and still delivers results.

Becker says he's always interested in looking at new ways to use the technology including nutrient application, and forestry management.
