Responding to the pace of modern agricultural development, agricultural robots came into being

[ China Agricultural Machinery Industry News ] In recent years, China has been accelerating the pace of agricultural mechanization and is striving to upgrade the level of modern agriculture in order to narrow the gap with developed countries in agricultural modernization. With the rapid development of agricultural mechanization, special robots for agricultural production have been published, and have gradually become an important part of agricultural technology equipment research and development. The emergence and application of agricultural robots have changed the traditional way of agricultural labor and promoted the development of modern agriculture.
Responding to the pace of modern agricultural development, agricultural robots came into being
Domestic agricultural robots are in their infancy
Since the 1980s, developed countries have started research and development of agricultural robots according to their actual conditions, and have successively developed a variety of agricultural production robots such as grafting robots, cutting robots, transplanting robots and picking robots. The development of agricultural robot technology has effectively promoted the automation, intelligence and development of agricultural production processes in developed countries.
Since the beginning of the 21st century, the agricultural labor force has been shifting to other industries. The structural shortage of agricultural labor and the aging of the agricultural industry have gradually become global problems. The rapid development of facilities agriculture, agriculture and high-tech, especially the rising cost of manual operations, has provided new impetus and possibilities for the further development of agricultural robots.
Data show that in 2014, the global professional service robot sales volume was 24,200 units, with sales of 3.77 billion US dollars, of which agricultural robot sales and sales accounted for 28% and 26% respectively.

According to the current development momentum, sales volume is growing at an average annual rate of 12%, and the price is 140,000 US dollars. By 2021, the global sales of agricultural robots will exceed 14,000 units, and sales will exceed 2 billion US dollars.

However, compared with developed countries, the use of agricultural robots in China is still in its infancy, especially in terms of low investment, slow development, and large technological gap.
In the mid-1990s, the development of agricultural robot technology began in China. Until the rapid development of industrialization, urbanization and modernization, the scope of research and development of agricultural robots has gradually expanded. At present, research and development are carried out in the fields of tilling robots, weeding robots, fertilizing robots, spraying robots, vegetable grafting robots, harvesting robots, and picking robots.
Although the gap between Chinese robotics and developed countries is significant, the gap between agricultural robots is even greater. However, with the rapid development of China's science and technology and economy, especially the country's increasing support for the development of agricultural mechanization, China's agricultural machinery industry has entered a period of good development, and also provides a good development opportunity for agricultural robots, and the advanced nature of agricultural robot technology. And the leading nature determines that it will become one of the important contents of China's agricultural technology equipment research and development in the future.
The future development trend of agricultural robots in China
Applying agricultural robots, improving resource utilization rate and agricultural output rate, and improving economic efficiency are the inevitable trend of modern agricultural development. Working some agricultural robots in the field will greatly increase labor productivity and make rational use of labor resources.
At present, the researchers mainly study two aspects. One is the walking series of agricultural robots. The navigation system can know the robot's path planning and obstacle avoidance, detection and positioning and control system stability. Second, the robot series robots, due to different growth environments, shapes Different, so developing robots must consider not only the basic and mechanical properties of the work object, but also the chemical and physiological properties.
In general, for a long period of time in the future, agricultural robots generally have the following three development trends, namely, achieving better working methods, simpler structure, more reasonable price, and more widespread use.
