OPERATING NOTES

“According to Greenfield’s Nathan Dyrud in US media, each robot costs $36,500 (€32,100).” Rule of thumb: one machine for every 80 to 100 acres of row crops (a 200-acre grower would likely need 2 or 3 robots; a 300-acre operation 3 or 4). Working rate about 0.85 acres per hour; University of Vermont pilot: a single robot covered around seven acres a day. Each robot runs on two swappable lithium-ion batteries, good for three to three-and-a-half hours before they need roughly the same amount of time to recharge (pull the batteries out or charge in place through a port).

Greenfield Robotics targets $18.6m as it sells out 2026 robot season ↗

The 2026 BOTONY season is sold out at more than $1 million in robot sales. Production is with Amity Technology in Fargo, North Dakota, and North Dakota has committed $500,000 toward a dedicated facility. Next season the company plans four tasks beyond weeding: night feeding, cover-crop seeding, cover-crop mulching, and cash-crop planting. A lease option is coming later; no lease terms or price are given. Research users include Cornell University and the University of Wisconsin, with the University of Nebraska set to follow on grant funding. USDA has run the fleet at Grand Farm in North Dakota inside the National Proving Grounds Network for AgTech.
