Farmers want data strategy

Data-driven technologies will help farmers meet sustainability and productivity goals, but governance and management of data are major hurdles. That’s why farm organizations told agriculture ministers last month they want a national data strategy.

Why are robotics and autonomous equipment so hot? Because factors such as labour shortages and time lost on simple, repetitive tasks are driving the need for more automation and robotics on the farm.

Haggerty AgRobotics has been researching and testing various technologies for several years. They offer a wide range of cutting-edge technologies to help farmers increase efficiency, reduce operational costs and improve crop yields.

Autonomous machinery is particularly useful for horticulture and high-value crops which are typically labour-intensive and require multiple people for planting and harvesting. These Ontario sectors are seeing an increased adoption of autonomous equipment that can seed, weed, hoe and prune – making a significant impact on the bottom line.

Haggerty AgRobotics representatives plan to bring many different autonomous robots to Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show, and will be available to discuss the variety of options for farmers considering robotics and precision agriculture equipment for their farm. 

Here are features farmers will see at the show:

• Planted horticulture crop with FarmDroid robot, with FarmDroid performing weeding maintenance
• Seeded crop using Naïo Orio robot and two-row vacuum planter built by Haggerty AgRobotics
• Naïo Oz robot weeding between the crop planted by the Naïo Orio
• Weed scouting robot on display
• Drone on display for discussion (not flying)
