#WFIRA2021 Ready for the 2nd day of the world #AgRobotics Forum, packed with demos and round tables. Stay tuned for more @FIRA_team
#WFIRA2021 A series of 3 lightweight full electric small tractors for frequent (repetitive) crop management practices in (organic) vineyards and row crops. Bonus: solar panel roof for the recharge on the go. Demo at @FIRA_team 2021 by @SAS_SabiAgri
#WFIRA2021#Trektor is a hybrid autonomous tractor now on live demo from Nantes during the World #AgRobotics Forum @FIRA_team
Diesel power generator and electrical batteries allow for flexibility.
Greenhouse horticulture and vineyards are the first applications.
#WFIRA2021 Is #electricity the unique solution to power #AgRobotics? A workshop now ongoing at @FIRA_team with battery solution providers and robot manufacturers (see mentions in the photo 😉)
#WFIRA2021 Time for the scientific workshop coordinated by @RobagriO and Romand Lenain both virtual and physical now at @FIRA_team 6th edition in Toulouse. Todays focus on autonomous navigation for agricultural operations.
#WFIRA2021#Harvesting and picking robots: this is rhe topic addressed by the workshop with diversified and relevant panelists, covering this crucial farming practices to which #AgAutomation could provide new tools for better efficiency. Now live @FIRA_team
#WFIRA2021 Learning more about @HarvestCROO a Florida-based robot for automating strawberry picking and packing, based on 360° images of each fruit, ultimately providing data to improve crop management. Now at @FIRA_team
#WFIRA2021 Some agricultural sectors is struggling with lack of labour. This is where #AgRobotics comes in, for instance for asparagus harvesting in the UK. @MuddyMachines is a robot concept answering farmers’ needs, as explained by this asparagus producer during @FIRA_team panel
#WFIRA2021 Robot versus #tractor: which lever of #AgAutomation brings more value to farmers? The 2nd day of the World #AgRobotics Forum is closing on a very relevant roundtable and a high-level group of panelists
#WFIRA2021 Labour efficiency is a matter of having right skills at the right place in the right moment to perform the expected tasks, especially under uncertain time windows due to climate change. Thoughts from Andrew Sunderman @AGCOcorp at @FIRA_team round table on #AgAutomation
#WFIRA21@Agrointelli has been nominated for silver medal at @AGRITECHNICA for the application in broccoli harvesting. Ole Green shared the announcement during the round table about harvesting & #AgAutomation at the 6th @FIRA_team. Congratulation to the team developing #Robotti!
@IFSAconf2024 #IFSA2024 Transition levels to #agroecology and factors supporting and discouraging its adoption – a case study from Northern #BurkinaFaso
Johannes Schuler & colleagues identified the farmers deploying these practices to understand the adoption factors at different levels
#IFSA2024 Day three of the 15th International Farming System Association Conference
Time for excursions to learn more about the local agriculture and agrifood actors
Something like 200 attendants will split into 4 different visit
A thread /1 🧵
#IFSA2024 The field excursions are the time to discuss the presentations, socialise and prepare future projects, and next conference
/2 🧵
@IFSAconf2024 #IFSA2024 Field trip day
Valentina Carta and Alex Breaz are our hosts for the visit to "Agricultural sharing for the resilience of rural communities"
#WFIRA24 Today opens the global event for agricultural robots in action
The scientific workshop sets the scene to summarise the state of art and challenge the methods
Thread 👇 /1
#WFIRA24 Opens with the scientific workshop coordinated by @RobagriO, the largest group of interest in agricultural robotics, in collaboration with @INRAE_France
/2
#WFIRA24 Cedric Seguineau addresses questions on methods.
The aim is to evaluate the potential contribution of #agRobotics to agroecology and #futureAg
From filling labour gaps to the delivery of new services, through a life cycle assessment.
