Agricultural robots are one of the most promising market segments. Robot Report Cover. Innovation can help growers maximize yields and optimize profits while using less chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
Automation is also making agriculture more attractive to the next generation of farmers. Agricultural robots are a key part of the Field Robotics Forum at RoboBusiness 2024, taking place October 16 and 17 in Santa Clara, California.
The event brings together the brightest minds in robotics to share their experiences and insights. Field robotics also includes systems for construction, delivery, utility, scientific and defense applications.

In RoboBusiness, Jason Schoettler of Calibrate Ventures and Tjarko Leifer of FarmWise Robotics discuss the state of robotics in agriculture. They also provide predictions on where the industry is headed, which sub-sectors are being funded and why, and how advances in embodied intelligence are making ag tech robots more cost-effective.
Additionally, Schottler and Kuiper will explain how the agricultural industry compares to other areas of field robotics adoption in terms of adoption, growth, and innovation.
This is a rare opportunity to hear from a leading robotics investor alongside the CEO of a highly successful field robotics company. Both will answer audience questions about the opportunities, challenges, and pitfalls of deploying agbotics at scale.
