Enviro ChatBeset by the myriad problems of global warming, climate change and a ballooning world population, the agricultural industry certainly has its work cut out for it in the years ahead. Thankfully, the impressive advances made in the fields of science and technology mean that it’s now possible to farm smarter and farm better.
One such encouraging development is the emergence of UAE-based Agritech startup company Egrobots. In addressing the significant issue of undetected crop diseases, Egrobots have developed a range of products and services which can help to make the lives of everyday farmers as simple as possible, maximising their yields and their profit margins in the process.
The international farming community has plenty of plates to keep spinning at the moment. Not only must it deal with a warming climate and increased incidence of extreme weather events, but it must also be wary of the growing number of crop diseases that these changing conditions can cause. In fact, the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) estimates that undetected crop diseases cost the worldwide economy around $220 billion each and every year.
Obviously, something must be done to tackle the problem. Step forward Egrobots, an agritech firm set up by Akhlad Alabhar, Hanan Sabry and Ahmed Thabet in 2022. “Our innovative use of robots and AI provides a solution that detects diseases early, improves crop yields, and reduces losses, contributing to a more sustainable and economically viable agriculture sector,” explains Alabhar.
In order to provide farmers with the best tools possible for their unique situations, Alabhar and his two co-founders have developed three different products and services. These are comprised of:
What’s more, Egrobots is available on a variety of payment programmes, from one-off service fees to rolling subscriptions to tailored licensing arrangements. As such, it is available and accessible to a wide variety of members of the farming community in the UAE and further afield.
