ROBOTS ARE TRANSFORMING THE AGRICULTURE AND FARMING INDUSTRY
 
“Agriculture's development was a turning point in human history. The ability of fully-modern humans to engineer the environment to provide enough food to sustain tremendous population expansion was the first major shift in their interaction with the environment. Agriculture ushered in a slew of innovations, ranging from the use of fire and prepared food to self-driving machinery.”

Modern agriculture has been totally revolutionized by technological developments ranging from robotics and drones to computer vision software. Farmers now have access to instruments that will assist them in meeting the growing demands of our world's population.

UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles)

Drones can be used to remotely monitor conditions and potentially spray fertilizers, insecticides, and other treatments. They can also use imaging and infrared analysis to swiftly and cost-effectively identify problem regions, allowing farmers to address difficulties early on. American Robotics is working on a completely autonomous "Robot-as-a-Service" with an autonomous drone, base station, and analytics platform that will supply growers with insights at resolutions, frequencies, and speeds never seen before. Some of the most relevant applications of autonomous drones and the data they provide are:

Crop monitoring
Soil assessment
Plant emergence and population
Fertility
Crop protection
Crop insurance reporting in real time
Irrigation and drainage planning
Harvest planning
Major Market Highlights:

Abundant Robotics is the first commercial robotic apple harvester in the world. Their machines handle delicate fruits by pulling apples from the branch with a vacuum rather than claws or hand-like graspers.

ecoRobotix is another firm that makes weeding robots; this is the first fully autonomous machine for weeding row crops, meadows, and intercropping in a more ecological and cost-effective manner.

AGCO Corporation (US) released AGCO Connect in North America under the Fuse brand to give customers and dealers access to machine location data and diagnostics.

AgJunction (US) and Swift Navigation (US) have announced a cooperation to develop low-cost, autonomous tractors for agricultural applications, bringing inexpensive solutions to farmers all over the world.

Trimble (US) has released Farmer Core software, which integrates machine-generated data to make setup and operations for diverse farming activities easier. It's a low-cost software subscription that's available to farmers.
