AgRobotics Demo Days scheduled in Ontario

Mark your calendars for two demonstration days in July says Tyler Zemlak, manager, innovation strategy, University of Guelph.

“Each event is focused on different horticultural crops / robotics solutions,” says Zemlak. “Bradford is primarily onions & carrots (Holland Marsh), Simcoe is primarily apples and asparagus. But both will also have robotics solutions that are more generally applicable to farm operations e.g. electric tractor, small weeding robot, logistics support.
