Swiss sustainable agtech firm Ecorobotix has announced ten new beta crop algorithms for its AI Plant-by-Plant software. These new algorithms enhance the ARA ultra-high precision sprayer’s capabilities. They broaden the range of supported crops, enabling more farmers to reduce plant protection products and advance sustainable practices.

Clients with an ARA sprayer can access these crop algorithms free of charge for a limited time. While still under refinement, they allow users to contribute valuable feedback for improving agronomic performance. By using these beta features, farmers gain early access to innovative tools while supporting the evolution of precision technology.

Ecorobotix’s latest software update (5.01) introduces:

• Broccoli
• Cauliflower
• Cotton
• Dicot Weeds in Wheat
• Leek
• Tansy or Common Ragwort in Grasslands
• Soy
• Sweetcorn
• Volunteer Potatoes in Chicory
• Other Cabbages

The Carrot and Dock + Thistle (for Meadows) algorithms, beta-tested in 2024, are now available as paid features. These solutions are designed for very high accuracy across diverse field conditions, reducing chemical use while maintaining effective crop care.

The ARA sprayer now supports over 20 crop algorithms, offering unmatched precision for herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, fertilisers, and bio stimulants. With up to 95% reduction in chemical use, the technology enables farmers to achieve sustainable practices without compromising productivity.
