Farmers don’t want to replace people; they want them more productive. Autonomy allows them to reassign labor to higher-value tasks while autonomous systems handle the repetitive, time-consuming, mundane ones.

We’re talking tech with Vanderloop Equipment CEO Robb Vanderloop today. The Wisconsin AGCO dealership has been ahead of the curve when it comes to expanding its precision portfolio.

The advancement of precision agriculture technology, such as drones, can provide an efficient solution for early-season field scouting. In contrast to traditional scouting, drone scouting can be less time-consuming, have more thorough field coverage, and be less labor intensive.

Dealers gathered for a 60-minute roundtable discussion to share some of their top precision revenue opportunities. "Drones are one of the fastest growing segments in application and agriculture. There are massive revenue opportunities with sales and repair."

With the theme “The Role of AI in Autonomous Agricultural Systems and Socioeconomic Effects,” the conference emphasizes the transformative power of AI in addressing critical issues like food security, conservation strategies and the socioeconomic impacts of autonomous systems.

Installed on existing tractors, Carbon AutoTractor provides farmers with production-ready autonomy that eliminates stoppages, operates 24/7, and increases efficiency.
