Agria Farm Machine
The number of farmers is decreasing rapidly. However, small structured agriculture in balance with nature is important to a healthy ecosystem, the protection of species and biodiversity. Agria is an autonomous and modular farm robot for small-scale farming, operating the work of sowing and plant protection. Frequent analysis of soil and plants enables specific treatment: Infrared, ozonised hydrogen and UV-light control bugs, fungi and pests ecologically. Sow modules adapted from CrossSlot Technology place seed and fertilizer exactly of right amount in the right place. Agria machines would work in an intelligent network of fields and machines, supplied by a local station. Farmers can manage their machines via computer or smart phone, share knowledge and have insight in analysis data and statistics. // Team Work with Julia Kaisinger and Stefan Riegebauer
