Marijn Vermuë, owner of Vermuë Arable Farming BV in Werkendam, has acquired an AgBot T2 traction robot to improve efficiency and reduce costs on his 160-hectare farm. The AgBot T2 is a pioneering technology that can perform various tasks, including mowing, planting, and harvesting. Currently, the robot is being tested and prepared for its first task, which is flail mowing cover crops in Werkendam. Vermuë is interested in understanding the robot’s capabilities and the real costs of operating it, excluding subsidies or tax benefits. His primary goals include maximizing yields, reducing costs, and minimizing environmental impact through precision farming techniques. The acquisition of the AgBot T2 is part of his efforts to advance his arable farm and improve its efficiency.
Field robot operates independently, unencumbered by social responsibilities.
