Farmers can understand the health and fertility of their farmlands to increase crop yields by 12% and total revenues by 8% without significantly increasing the costs. Rather than relying on expansive and hard-to-carry rigid robots and other flexible and soft robots in the field of agriculture, farmers can depend on the modular peristaltic robot on their farmlands while saving money by avoiding the need to re-purchase the robot frequently and reducing the demand for agricultural workers by 86% under a global trend of rural depopulation and a decline in the availability of farm labor.
Farmers can rely on real-time feedback data to make better decisions, such as optimizing the amount of fertilizers and pesticides on farmland to prevent environmental crises like algae bloom and eutrophication caused by anthropogenic pollution.
