Autonomous Weeders in Mixed Vegetable Cultivation: BC Tour

May 30 - June 1

Free

Curious about agri-tech weeding equipment and how it could help your farm become more efficient and financially resilient, all the while keeping weeds at bay? Then join Organic BC on one of their tour stops and explore the use of autonomous weeders in mixed vegetable cultivation in BC!

  • May 30th: Plenty Wild Farms, Pemberton
  • June 1st: UBC Farm, Vancouver

Take a look at how some of these tools work and see a demonstration of the Naio Oz robot, a multi-tasking, multi-crop, electric powered robot that can autonomously seed, weed, furrow, hill, and carry loads using RTK GPS technology to navigate. There will be ample time for questions and discussions with a Haggerty AgRobotics rep about this tool and other agri-tech equipment, plus snacks and refreshments.

This event is free but registration is required. Register for the Plenty Wild Farms event here, and the UBC Farm event here.
