Low cost farm robots will make pesticides obsolete in plant protection. This will get toxic pesticides out of our environment and ultimately out of our food.
Objective of this talk is to mobilize the maker community to contribute to this urgently needed transformation of agriculture.
The open design of the farm robots will make it possible to built the devices in the farming communities. We want to create the digital black smith.
