Those of us who only see the countryside on television do not have an idea of the “problem” that a farmer has to remove the rocks that appear in his crop field, and prevent them from causing breakdowns in his machines and generating economic losses.
I have seen information from a company that offers a simple and elegant solution to this problem. It is called TerraClear and you can see its WEB at: https://www.terraclear.com/
With its cutting-edge technology, this company gives farmers the peace of mind of having a field free of obstacles, optimizing their operations and maximizing their yields.
Rocks can cause considerable damage to agricultural machinery, such as combines, seeders and tractors, the most common being broken blades and discs: Rocks can forcefully impact the blades and discs of combine harvesters, causing breakage and generating costly repairs. .
TerraClear has developed an innovative technology that allows stones to be removed from crop fields efficiently and precisely. Their system works using drones that precisely detect the presence of rocks on the ground, and note their location.
This information is passed to the rock collection robot, which locates them and removes them from the ground in a few moments.

From what I have read, the company is offering the rock removal service to farming communities in the USA. Something that could be expanded to other parts.
I liked the idea because it is apparently simple and eliminates a problem that has accompanied farmers for hundreds of years.
