Ecorobotix introduces ultra-high precision treatment in vegetables

Ecorobotix has reached a new milestone with the launch of its new 2026 crop algorithms. For the first time, an Ultra-High Precision (UHP) sprayer allows non-selective herbicides to be used in vegetable farming. This unique breakthrough transforms vegetable weeding: less manual labour, greater profitability, and a sustainable solution to the economic, environmental, and societal challenges facing producers.

“For the first time, we are demonstrating that it is possible to use a non-selective herbicide in a sensitive crop such as broccoli with precision, targeting only weeds while protecting the crop,” says Dominique Mégret, CEO.  “This is a concrete alternative to selective herbicides, opening up new possibilities for vegetable farming.” 

The company is open for pre-orders for new algorithms which will be available in March 2026 for crops such as broccoli, cauliflower and other varieties of cabbage. Also, precision thinning has arrived for lettuce and broccoli.  

Looking ahead to 2026, Ecorobotix is launching a series of algorithms currently under development, available free of charge while being refined. Among these algorithms are:  leeks, garlic, celery, potatoes, and ragwort in grasslands. This launch phase offers producers the opportunity to test Ecorobotix' s upcoming Plant-by-Plant technological advances in new crops today.
