Description

Labor shortages are nothing new to the agriculture industry and COVID-19 has excerbated this already existing problem.  Is it sustainable and efficient to import labor from other countries like the US and the UK do?

The time for automation in the food and agriculture industry is now. But are the robots ready to be unleashed?

Our recent webinar with Josh Lessing from RootAI and Igino Cafiero Bear Flag Robotics tackles the inherent challenges of the space, and how to improve it forward in a post-COVID19 world.

Learn more about how these 2 trailblazers are automating harvests in greenhouses (RootAI) and retrofitting existing machinery with autonomous tilage equipment (Bear Flag Robotics), and how they are preparing agriculture as we know it for the new normal.
