Robots in mechanical weeding - DLG-Feldtage live

For years, the subject of mechanical weeding has increasingly been in the spotlight as a true alternative to herbicide application. Such systems have become more sophisticated and “smart” as sensors, cameras and steering systems have been introduced to both improve weeding efficiency and to ease the work of employees.
Following the actual course of automation, robotics is the next step of crop management. Already, autonomous machines navigate through fields, planting and weeding crops. Naturally, new robotic systems do have its limitations but progress is rapidly speeding up. 
Which robotic systems are closest to practical application? What are the biggest obstacles hindering the broad adoption of such tools in crop production?

This webinar on robotic systems aim go into these questions. Together with tech companies, engineers, and practitioners, we aim to  explore the latest developments of robotics in agriculture. Join the webinar and contribute to the discussion with questions we shall address during the live event.
