FarmDroid
The world’s first fully automatic robot taking care of both sowing and mechanical weed control
FarmDroid is the world's only fully automated robot that can perform both sowing and mechanical weed control. We help farmers and plant breeders reduce costs for sowing and cleaning crops while making CO2 neutral and organic. FarmDroid FD20 is a solar-powered field robot that, using a GPS signal, marks the location of the crops when sowing, and subsequently performs mechanical weed control both between and in the rows. The unique precision of sowing makes it possible to clean very close to the crop, thereby minimizing, or completely eliminating, the need for manual weed control. The four solar panels produce power for a battery pack, and ensure up to 24 hours of daily CO2 neutral operation. You therefore avoid external charging of the batteries and can let your FarmDroid FD20 work in the field throughout the season.
