Agriculture & Food Security
As the global population continues to grow, agriculture must increase productivity while managing limited resources. Modern technologies — robotics, AI, and precision agriculture — are transforming how food is produced.
Through this competition, participants explore how robots can support agriculture by addressing challenges such as:
- Efficient irrigation and water management
- Sustainable crop production
- Pest control and crop monitoring
- Harvesting and sorting agricultural produce
- Reducing waste and improving food distribution
Two Exciting Missions
Mission 1: Cultivation & Irrigation
Plant seeds in the correct crop plots and water only where seeds have been sown.
Mission 2: Harvesting & Sorting
Collect ripe (red) and diseased (black) fruits. Leave unripe green fruits untouched.
