What product is this competing against if any? I am guessing someone in the farming field may know more about what to do with the program but for the layman an explanation or some instructions as to how you use it would be awesome.

This looks like a limited-feature clone of Agrilyst [http://agrilyst.com/], which won TechCrunch Disrupt SF 2015.

There's a whole bunch of products in the 'farm management system' category. YC's entry is called Farmlogs. I previously worked for another such company called Agworld.

At the least Nice site for any one looking to see a symphony example. I don't use symphony and despite liking most of the code I still hate the idea developers hand typing routes and that's my main selling point for something barebones like code igniter or some other automated routing process like a json-rpc API that can figure out what controller to go to on it's own.

and when you need to rename a single route you do what, rename the whole controller and/or method?
