AgRibot at the ICAERUS Drone Spraying Demonstration Event

AgRibot joined ICAERUS at their 2nd live demonstration event on 6 November 2025 at the Agricultural University of Athens (AUA). The event showcased the latest in agri-tech and highlighted growing synergies among EU projects working to advance smart and sustainable farming.

The Future We’re Building with AgRibot

Across Europe, farmers are facing tough challenges: fewer people working the land, long hours, heavy labour, and increasing pressure to farm more sustainably.

So how is AgRibot contributing to this change, and how will it make farmers’ lives easier?
In this blog, we take a closer look at the project’s Expected Impacts and Outcomes — the long-term goals and the concrete changes already being tested in the field.

The Last Dangerous Job? Why Agriculture Needs Safety Improvements

Europe’s food and farming sectors employ 8.7 million people — yet agriculture remains one of the most dangerous professions in the EU.

Though usually under-reported, these hazards persist today, especially in small and mid-sized farms.
