Buyer’s guide: tillage and soil work robots

How they work

They pull or carry standard or dedicated implements and follow GPS paths with centimetre accuracy, often lighter than a tractor so they compact the soil less.

What to check before buying

  • Pulling power and hitch type
  • Which implements are supported
  • Weight and soil compaction
