Latest Growing Produce Podcast: Are Robots Ready for Your Farm?

Only a few weeks ago, we officially launched the Growing Produce Podcast, where twice a month, editors from American Fruit Grower, Western Fruit Grower, and American Vegetable Grower unpack the stories, science, and business behind American fruit and vegetable production.

In the second episode, American Fruit Grower Senior Content Specialist Thomas Skernivitz explores just how close agricultural robotics and autonomous equipment are to widespread adoption among specialty crop growers. To dig into this topic, he talks with technology manufacturers, researchers, and growers about the real-world performance, return on investment, reliability, service, and the challenges of moving beyond demonstrations to commercial use.
