The Challenge: Precise Weed Control in Lettuce Fields

---

Lettuce farming demands high precision. In the U.S., where lettuce is often seeded, growers face significant costs from manual weeding and broad chemical applications. These practices can lead to increased phytotoxicity and reduced crop quality. In Europe, where lettuce is typically transplanted, the main challenge lies in the precise application of insecticides and fungicides to protect young plants without harming them.

The Solution: Plant-by-Plant AI

Ecorobotix’s advanced plant-by-plant AI redefines targeted weed control, ensuring only unwanted weeds are treated with exceptional accuracy. This technology optimizes crop health, reduces chemical costs, and enhances yield quality.

Proven Results: Data from 3,000 Onion Missions

Our recent study, analyzing nearly 3,000 ARA sprayer missions in onion fields, revealed herbicide savings of up to 95%. In most cases, chemical use was reduced by at least 80%, proving that ARA not only cuts costs but also protects onions from chemical stress.

Higher Yield Potential – By avoiding phytotoxicity, onions grow stronger and bigger.

Lower Input Costs – Reduce chemical expenses while improving overall farm profitability.

Environmentally Sustainable – Reduce chemical runoff, improve soil health and air pollution.

The Challenge: Precision in Spinach Farming

---

Spinach farming requires precision. Traditional methods often involve high labor costs, excessive use of chemicals, and imprecise weeding, all of which lead to diminished crop quality, increased environmental impact, and higher expenses. Even after harvesting, leftover weeds can affect packing quality, making precise weed control essential throughout the entire farming process.

The Solution: Plant-by-Plant AI

Our cutting-edge, plant-by-plant AI technology revolutionizes weed control in spinach farming. With unparalleled accuracy, it targets only the weeds, even close to the crop, while keeping phytotoxicity to a minimum. This significantly reduces chemical use, lowers labor costs, and improves the yield, health, and overall quality of your spinach harvest.

Experience the future of spinach farming, where technology and sustainability grow hand in hand.

The Challenge: Precision in String Bean Farming

---

All crop farming requires high accuracy. Traditional methods often rely on manual labor, strongly weather dependent mechanical weeding and broadcast chemical applications, which can harm the crop, increase costs, and negatively affect the environment.

---

The Solution: Plant-by-Plant AI

Our advanced plant-by-plant AI technology provides precise weed control, targeting only weeds with exceptional accuracy. This reduces the need for harmful chemicals, cuts down on labor costs, and enhances the health and quality of string bean yields.

Unlock the future of string bean farming with our innovative, sustainable, and efficient AI-driven solution.

The Challenge: Aggressive Weeds and High Input Costs

---

Sugar beet fields are especially vulnerable to fast-growing, herbicide-resistant weeds. Traditional broadcast spraying remains the standard solution but often leads to high input costs, increased crop stress, and sub-optimal chemical efficiency, especially as resistance builds.

---

The Solution: Ultra-Precise Plant-Level Treatment

With Ecorobotix’s plant-by-plant AI and high-resolution targeting, every weed is identified and treated with pinpoint accuracy, minimizing impact on the surrounding crop. This reduces chemical usage by up to 95%, supports crop health, and contributes to sustainable, efficient farming.

The Challenge: Invasive Weeds & Volunteer Potatoes

---

Sugar beet crops are especially affected by herbicide-resistant weeds, and even more by volunteer potatoes. These unwanted plants grow from leftover tubers and cause several problems: they host pests and diseases, reduce yield and quality, and disrupt crop rotation, not just for the current season but for future ones too.

Traditional solutions are often incomplete or too expensive. Manual weeding is hard work, while broadcast spraying uses more chemicals, puts stress on the crop, and speeds up herbicide resistance.

---

The Solution: Targeted AI-Driven Precision

Ecorobotix’s ARA sprayer uses plant-by-plant AI technology to detect and spray individual weeds, including volunteer potatoes, with centimeter-level accuracy. Every plant is analyzed. Every action is optimized.

-Adapts to various emergence stages, even staggered ones

-Up to 95% less herbicide use

-Safeguards sugar beet yield and health

- Controls volunteer potatoes efficiently with reduced impact on the crop

The Challenge: Delicate Crops, Persistent Threats

---

Crops do not compete well with weeds. But worse, volunteer potatoes, resprouting from missed tubers, pose a silent but costly threat.

These plants:

- Increase chemical use and compromise sustainable practices

- Slow down harvest operations and disrupt onion bulb development

- Host nematode pests, threatening future potato crops and breaking regenerative rotation cycles

- Persist through rotations and resist standard herbicides

---

The Solution: Ultra-High Precision at Plant Level

Ecorobotix’s ARA combines high-resolution cameras and AI to individually detect and treat weeds and volunteer potatoes. This means:

Disease risk mitigation: Break pathogen hosts in rotation

Less chemical, more control: Up to 95% reduction in herbicide use

No crop damage: Phytotoxicity is minimized, ensuring no negative impact on crop development. With the ability to either plant later or harvest earlier than conventional practices, growers can optimize their operations without sacrificing yield.

Optimized harvest quality: Bigger bulbs, higher market value
