Farm-ng

Welcome California Polytechnic State University-San Luis Obispo to the Farm Robotics Challenge!! Team PolyFlow is developing on the Farm-ng #Amiga designing it to efficiently lay irrigation drip lines into the ground. Their configuration will reduce labor costs, improve installation accuracy, and increase water-use efficiency for farmers. By automating this process, they aim to make large scale irrigation setup faster, more precise, and less physically demanding. The design will focus on integrating precision placement technology using GPS, sensors, and automated actuators to ensure proper spacing and depth of the drip lines. We are excited to see it in action! #FarmRoboticsChallenge #AgTech #SmartFarming #Automation #Farmng #Amiga #IrrigationTech #WaterEfficiency #FutureOfFarming

We’re at #SXSWEDU, showcasing how robotics can transform agricultural education and empower the next generation of innovators. Our new high school curriculum integrates hands-on robotics and agtech, connecting students to real-world farming challenges and solutions in the field. By working directly with robotics, students develop practical skills for everyday agriculture. #AmigaRobot #STEAM #AutonomousAgriculture #RobotsInTheWild #Education

Welcome University of Missouri-Columbia to the Farm Robotics Challenge! Excited to see your SmartSpray Rover in the field!

The Future of Farming is Here! In our latest episode, “Farm-ng & L5 Robotics: Small-Scale Robotics and Autonomous Harvesting Innovations,” I had the pleasure of speaking with Nathan Dorn, VP of Business Development of Farm-ng, and Alexander Gutierrez, CEO of L5 Automation Inc, about the cutting-edge advancements shaping the future of agriculture. Nathan shared how Farm-ng’s small, electric robotic tractors are revolutionizing farming—enhancing data collection, weeding, and harvesting while also providing hands-on learning opportunities for students and researchers. Alex introduced L5 Robotics' autonomous harvesting systems designed to tackle labor shortages in strawberry production, improving efficiency and sustainability in one of the most labor-intensive crops. Key Takeaways: ? Farm-ng’s open-source robotics empowering farmers and educators ? L5 Robotics’ autonomous harvesting – a game-changer for labor efficiency ? Tackling scalability and cost challenges in ag robotics ? How robotics and sustainability are shaping the future of food systems The potential of robotics in agriculture goes far beyond automation—it’s about empowering farmers, improving sustainability, and ensuring a resilient food system for the future.

Day 1 at World Ag Expo is here! ???? We’re live in Tulare, showcasing the Amiga robot for hands-free operation, smart pest management, and vision-based autonomy. As featured in ABC30, the Amiga helps farmers tackle tough jobs like spraying sulfur in orchards. Instead of working in the field, they can remotely guide Amiga along a trained path, making farming safer and more efficient. ??Join us for live demos at our Welcome Tent! ? Demo Times: 9 AM, 10 AM, 11 AM, 1 PM, 2 PM, 3 PM ?? Find us at Booth JK3! #AutonmousAgriculture #AmigaRobot #RobotsInTheField #WAE25

"Autonomous robots in tree nurseries? Forget it — GPS signal is not good enough under tree leaves in summer!" ???? ? Challenge accepted! ?? In the TUPIC project with Flanders Make and Ghent University, we’ve upgraded the Farm-ng Amiga to navigate using only visual perception in rows of trees—no GPS required! Watch as it moves effortlessly through the rows. ?? ? And this is just the first step! In upcoming videos, we’ll show how this robot can also spray plants and perform other precision farming tasks. Stay Tuned! ???? ? #AgTech #AI #Robotics #Autonomy #AutonomousFarming

Join us for exclusive demos showcasing hands-free steering, smart pest management, and vision-based autonomy — built to handle complex or labor-intensive tasks with precision. ?? ?? #WorldAgExpo #InFieldDemo #Robots #Autonomy

Today, we had the pleasure of meeting with Nathan Dorn from Farm-ng, who introduced us to The Amiga, an autonomous field rover tailored for diverse farm tasks. Farm-ng's innovative product is now reaching High Schools and Colleges nationwide, offering students a chance to develop next-gen agriculture skills. During a 10-week curriculum devloped by Farm-ng, students delve into building and utilizing The Amiga from the ground up. The program covers essential skills like electrical systems, mechanical assembly, field operations, safety protocols, coding, and software development for effective machine operation. During the meeting, Nathan generously allowed Ric Murphy, our Program Director for California Foundation for Agriculture in the Classroom, to test drive The Amiga. It was truly an enlightening experience witnessing the intersection of technology and agriculture for educational advancement.
