In addition, for conventional farmers, itcan also microspray and reduce the use of plant protection substances up to 94%. The unique precision at seeding makes it possible to clean the crop up close and thereby minimize, or completely eliminate, the need for manual weed control. The four solar panels on top of the robot produce power for a battery package and ensure up to 24 hours daily CO2-neutral operation.
