Autonomous Technology for Weed Management

Autonomous technology will change the way we farm; and probably sooner rather than later. With efficiency and sustainability closely linked, the advantages of autonomous robots are hard to ignore. And, as innovators and AI developers get their manufacturing ducks in a row, it is likely only a matter of time before these robots are buzzing across farms everywhere.

As weed managers, autonomous robots offer a big advantage by cutting down on herbicide use, zeroing in on weeds, and applying chemicals only where needed. Head to Issue 15 of PotatoLink Magazine to learn more about the latest autonomous weed technology.
