@@benkrispy6017 they are cleaning the drainage ditches in a cranberry bog. First they go around with a mini excavator and scrape out the mud and weeds. The operator piles the debris neatly on the black tarps so the helicopter can pick them up. I’m guessing they do this to minimize traveling on the cranberry vines. Cranberry farmers will also use helicopters for other things like spraying fertilizer or pesticides.
