Excellent stuff! Could you reach out to me about this video, please? I'm at kheintz [AT] eb [dot] com. I'd like to know how I could use this footage in my own production.

Mike the manager of the operation at Lake Nokomis Cranberries explained a little more of what is going on in the video:
Cranberries grow on dry ground(number 1 misconception is that they grow in water, they don't.) but water is used for harvesting. Cranberries float, so they are raked off of the plants into water. The water is then flooded deeper so tractors can drag a corral boom thru the cranberry bed to get them to one end of the bed in which they grow. Once corralled a machine called a berry pump is brought in and the berries are pumped into waiting wagons. The wagons carry the crop into a cleaning station where they are cleaned and put into waiting semi trailers to be brought to the processors. Water is drained from the bed and another season can begin. -
Great footage,your video has been embedded on the global UAV map.
