Description: 

Agrirossa is an organization formed to bring together the innovations and different technologies envisaged by Agriculture 5.0. It is aimed to use the increasing environmental problems and the resources that depend in the agricultural economy in an effective and efficient manner.

Developing autonomous agricultural robots with the above vision, Agrirossa; It is developing two autonomous agricultural robots, Capra and Diona.

Capra aims to end the use of pesticides used to destroy weeds in the fight against weeds, which is the biggest problem of our farmers. For this, it will enable the target plant to gain a nutritional competitive advantage by rooting weeds with the use of image processing and mechanical intervention arm. Thanks to its image processing capability, it will perform flower counting for yield estimation, vegetable/fruit and leaf analysis to detect plant diseases, and insect detection for insect control. Considering the cost of drugs and the use of manpower, it will enter a market worth €300 million only in Turkey and serve.

Diona, on the other hand, will exterminate the fly by trapping it with its active attractant trap to combat the Mediterranean Fruit Fly (MFF), especially in citrus. For this, MFF will trap the fly during the mating and spawning period in its life cycle, detect it with image processing, and inform the farmer about the need to take precautions in these areas by informing on the user interface in which position it was caught, as well as information such as age and height. During the image processing it carries out for environmental awareness, it will detect spilled citrus fruits and collect them at the destruction point, preventing the spilled fruits from becoming a host for MFF. In this way, according to the 2020 reports, it will help the economy of 20 million citrus fruits, which have perished worldwide. Diona will not only be limited to citrus, but will also be used for MFF-affected fruits such as pomegranate, peach, apricot and jujube. In the future, it will gain the ability to fight with insects that are pests of pistachios.
