Current Ag Aims
• To feed a growing global population with reducing resources
• Increase sustainability: reduced waste & increase efficiency
• Precision Farming methods and management

A small robotic future
Increased resolution = improved PF = margin gain?
Reduced compaction (tackle cause) = increase yield?
Robots operate in “swarms” = same area covered
Swarm requires management = job retained
Small vehicles are intrinsically safer
Future plant scale robotic management
40hp scale farmingA first step to field robotics

The Reason Were here!
• Don’t forget Agriculture
• We work to standard too!
• We operate on and off road
• Can you offer any help
• Do you want to work in an off road environment?
• Please get in touch we want to be collaborative
