Ecorobotix<\/a>, the Vaud-based agtech company developing AI-powered precision spraying systems, has announced that 1,000 units of its ARA ultra-high precision sprayer have been sold and deployed worldwide since the product’s launch five years ago. The milestone reflects the rapid commercial scaling of a technology that originated as a research concept at Y-Parc<\/a> in Yverdon-les-Bains and has since expanded into a global agricultural platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ARA system applies crop protection products within a 6 \u00d7 6 cm treatment footprint, using Ecorobotix’s proprietary Plant-by-Plant AI to identify and treat each plant individually rather than broadcasting across an entire field. The approach reduces herbicide use by up to 95% compared to conventional spraying while maintaining full treatment effectiveness, delivering measurable benefits in input cost reduction, resistance management, and environmental impact across vegetable, arable, and turf applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 1,000 machines now deployed span farms in Europe, the United States, Canada, and Australia, supported by a growing network of regional offices and distributors providing localized training, technical support, and crop-specific algorithm development. With more than 30 crop algorithms currently available, the platform has demonstrated adaptability across a broad range of agricultural contexts and growing conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The commercial milestone follows a period of significant investment and product expansion for Ecorobotix. The company raised a combined USD 150 million across its Series C and Series D rounds in 2024 and 2025<\/a>, and in January 2026 launched ALBA, a new AI-powered precision sprayer targeting golf course and turf management, extending the Plant-by-Plant AI platform beyond field agriculture for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 2014 and now employing over 250 people, Ecorobotix holds B Corporation certification and continues to position precision spraying as a commercially viable and environmentally sound alternative to conventional crop protection methods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
