Innovative approaches to agriculture: automation and robotisation of machine tractor units for optimization of costs and conservation of soils
Abstract
The modern agricultural sector of Ukraine needs equipment that will meet the requirements of precision farming and work effectively in specific conditions. The problems associated with outdated equipment and the high cost of imported equipment encourage the search for new solutions to create competitive Ukrainian products. Traditional methods of land cultivation are no longer able to meet the requirements of modern agricultural production, therefore automation and robotization of machine-tractor units are becoming necessary to optimize costs and preserve soil fertility.
The purpose of this study is to analyze modern approaches to automation and robotization of agricultural machinery, as well as to determine the possibilities of their implementation in domestic production.
To achieve this goal, the methods of analysis of literary sources, comparison of existing models of technology, as well as the method of expert evaluation were applied. Special attention is paid to the study of the results of previous research on the automation and robotization of agricultural equipment in order to determine the most promising directions for adaptation in Ukraine.
The results showed that there is a significant potential for the development of Ukrainian agricultural machinery focused on automation. The implementation of modern management technologies, including robotic systems and navigation, can significantly increase productivity, reduce costs and improve adaptability to agricultural production conditions. According to the conclusions, the introduction of technological innovations in the production of Ukrainian agricultural machinery will open the way to increasing the competitiveness of the industry. This will allow farmers to get modern and affordable equipment that will meet the high requirements of agribusiness
Key words: agricultural machinery, technical and technological support, productivity, economic effect, cost optimization, preservation of soil fertility.
