Agricultural robotics for precision farming are now essential, but digital agriculture requires experts and skilled scientists. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the AIGreenBots project aims to train 11 researchers in agricultural robotics for precision and digital agriculture. It involves a partnership among universities, research institutions, and companies from Portugal, the Netherlands, the UK, France, and Spain. The project focuses on academic and non-academic collaboration in robotics, automation, artificial intelligence, machine learning, sensor fusion, and safety for agricultural robotics. It will develop new agri-bot platforms. Currently, no PhD training programmes in Europe specifically focus on agriculture robotics, despite the rapidly growing demand for such research.
