Agricultural Robotics refers to the use of robotic systems and automation technologies in the agricultural sector. This field encompasses a variety of robotic applications designed to improve efficiency, reduce labor costs, and enhance productivity in farming. Agricultural robots can perform tasks such as planting, harvesting, weeding, irrigating, and monitoring crop health. These robots often utilize sensors, computer vision, and artificial intelligence to navigate fields, identify plants and pests, and make real-time decisions. The goal of agricultural robotics is to optimize farming practices, reduce environmental impact, and meet the growing demand for food while addressing labor shortages within the agricultural workforce.
