I-FARM Update: Using Robots to Seed Cover Crops

Описание к видео I-FARM Update: Using Robots to Seed Cover Crops

This video shows off Year Two of the I-FARM: Farm of the Future research into using autonomous land rovers to broadcast cover crop seed in standing corn. Seeding cover crops in mid-August allows the cover crop a much earlier germination than it would otherwise get if it was seeded after the corn is harvested in late September. Planting cover crops also help prevent soil erosion, sequester carbon, and some add nutrients to the soil. For more information go to: https://sustainability.illinois.edu/r...
