We design agricultural robotic systems for marine, livestock, open field, horticulture, fresh chains and food, together with many experts on these application fields within Wageningen. We specialise in artificial intelligence and sensing, especially spectral, learning and vision. We also bundle knowledge in the field of ethics, uptake and ecosystems of Agro Food Robotics. Do youwant to join us? We invite you to contact Programme Manager Agro FoodRobotics Erik.Pekkeriet@wur.nl www.agrofoodrobotics.eu Towards circular food systems To provide the optimal treatment to a plant is called precision agriculture, satellite farming or site-specific crop management. Wageningen University helps to be more sustainable by minimizing inputs and maximize anoptimally nutritious, highquality product as an output. We develop intelligent machine end sensor solutions interacting with tech-suppliers and end-users. Optimal breeding with robotics Food production relies on the efficiency of plants and animals. To find and select the best performing variety, automation and large scale testing is key. Wageningen University &Research is specialised in sensing & plant/animal phenotyping with nondestructive, fast and robust applications. In co-development with machine builders and breeding companieswe develop objective methods to collect data for describing variety performances in all stages of (re)production. Smart sensing for optimal product quality Whether it’s fresh fruit, vegetables and cut flowers or processed foods, top quality, sustainable, cost-efficient production processes are crucial for agrifood companies wanting to establish themselves in the market. We develop smart sensor systems that provide detailed and objective insight into product quality. This enables agrifood companies to optimise processes throughout the chain and extract the maximum value from product quality. Robotics for hands-free production The future for food production, handling and processing is handsfree farming, hands-free harvesting &hands-free assessment and monitoring.
