How Agricultural Robots Can Help Global Food Supply Shortages

Wednesday, June 15, 2022

BOSTON, June 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- According to Hansotia, about "13% of the global calories came out of production" when Russian and Ukrainian borders shut down. The Russia-Ukraine war has put pressure on farmers globally to produce more crops to make up for a gap in supply left by the two countries. As prices of wheat, fuel, and fertilizer rise, the total costs for farmers have been increasing. For instance, due to the Ukraine-/Russia-related Sanctions, post-effects of quantitative easing during COVID, and supply chain disruptions, the prices of Brent crude oil have quadrupled from around 28 USD/Bbl (Barrel of crude oil) in March 2020 to 105 USD/Bbl.

Key Points: 
  • IDTechEx considers whether the Russia-Ukraine war will impact global food supply shortages, and how agricultural robots can play a part.
  • Meanwhile, to maintain the same level of global food supply as the pre-war level, more food needs to be produced, and the increasing demand leads to a higher pressure on farmers to produce more crops.
  • One efficiency improvement is to adopt automated machines - agricultural robots (also known as automated agricultural machinery).
  • Examples include milking robots, agricultural drones, and automated weeding robots.
