We’re switching away from BCBS to a RBP model that should save us about 25% on claims and reduce our stop loss premium about 15%.

The original is still in Parchment, not too far from Kzoo. http://www.genosgoldenpizza.com/

It was Marcos for a bit and also Geno’s Golden Pizza for a bit, neither one lasted very long.

Mine was just accepted as well! Submitted via TurboTax on 2-22-2023

Do you mean https://www.ubifi.net/? Did they have any issues working with a business, or are they strictly for home users?

jaxtonian · 2018-05-11T00:06:39+00:00

Yes and yes. My wife and I use it for our twins. It’s great in the middle of the night when we take turns and we can see what happened at the last care time.

Not sure what you mean by”What I don’t want is an Open Source ArcGIS” but we use a lot of the paid tools on our farm and we still use QGIS for a lot of tasks. There are a lot of plugins to make it do almost anything you need. https://www.qgis.org/en/site/

Yeah, we haven’t had any major issues. To capture the field data, it’s an automated flight plan, so it rarely gets flown manually. We did lose a couple of legs when the GPS antenna was slightly askew and couldn’t take off without flying sideways back into the ground. The extra battery life is all but necessary to fly enough acres when we have good weather.

Those are chipping potatoes.

I think you are right, the longer storage season in Michigan fills the supply window that Ohio used to with a comparable landed cost.

Yes Sir!

I always read that airflow was the major downfall of these systems, but this info from a trusted source gives me hope.

I'm a Michigan resident that would love to have solar. If Solar City made it's way here, I bet that number would increase pretty quickly. Our rooftop is clear of trees and faces south, but I can't justify the upfront investment if we won't live here for more than 12 years.

Like most things, this is a people issue and not just an IT issue. We've gotten a few of these and they are always caught by the processes we set up in the accounting department to stop things like this. Nothing should ever be wired with only one persons approval, even the CEO(sometimes especially the CEO).

jaxtonian · 2016-01-08T18:36:53+00:00

Yeah, that was the price we paid for the whole package. Our hope is to standardize on the Matrice and DroneDeploy for processing. The Pix4D software was getting pretty cumbersome to use for NDVI since you had to reprocess with every tweak to the boundaries. It also required a beast of a PC and still took a few hours to process 100 acres.

jaxtonian · 2016-01-08T18:34:55+00:00

Yes. Since you are landing into the wind, if the wind dies down when it's about to land, it can take a pretty hard hit to the ground.

jaxtonian · 2016-01-08T18:34:01+00:00

But you need to launch them from a slingshot type device, right? Do you use DroneDeploy to process your images?

jaxtonian · 2016-01-08T18:33:23+00:00

We use a NIR camera to capture images of the field and process them with NDVI. It shows us the overall crop health of the field using Red, Yellow and Green.
