Autonomous Electric Tractors in Blueberries

September 17 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Free

Looking for innovative and efficient ways to tackle increasing costs and labour shortages in your blueberry operation? Agri-tech weeding equipment could be a key part of the solution!

To find out more, join Organic BC at Klaassen Farms in Chilliwack on Tuesday, Sept. 17th for a demo of autonomous, electric tractors in blueberry production.

Representatives from Rollins Machinery will be on hand to discuss the latest advancements in this technology. And, Monarch Tractors will showcase and demonstrate their MK-V tractor, highlighting its computer-vision autonomy and electric capabilities, emitting zero emissions while utilizing common farm implements for mowing, weeding, tilling and more.

Ample time will be provided for questions and discussions after the demonstration. There will also be an opportunity to test drive the Monarch! Snacks and refreshments will be provided.

This event is free but registration is required. Register here: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/autonomous-electric-tractors-in-blueberries-tickets-919102800217
