THE SMALL ROBOT COMPANY

The Small Robot Company has built a team from Deep Mind, Dyson, IBM, Virgin Galactic and Formula 1 to revolutionise the way that technology is used to create food, by delivering per plant farming for the world’s biggest crops. This radical approach is focused on using lightweight autonomous vehicles providing near-real time view of each crop plant as it grows through the season. This is called per plant intelligence. We then using this view to deliver precise, timely interventions to make th... at plant reach its full potential. This is called per plant action. By doing this, we are stripping out all the inefficiencies and vast overuse of herbicides, pesticides, fungicides and fertiliser. …And because we do not disturb or compact the soil, we allow the ecosystem of a field to do what it does best. Fix itself. Per plant intelligence is commercially available now for UK farmers, and some of the world’s largest providers of crop seed, nutrients and protection. Per plant action will come online from October 2022.More
