Palm Robotics

Palm Robotics is an innovative, agile, and technology-rich company whose mission is to enable farmers to grow healthier fruit trees and field crops through smart management methods and technologies that enable sustainable agriculture – maximizing their yields while minimizing their use of water, fertilizers, and insecticides. At a conference related to the palm sector in 2019, there was a shared frustration among attendees about the inability to find a solution to the palm weevil and the damage it inflicts, despite attempting numerous methods such as visual inspection, pheromone traps, chemical detection, sound detection, and even police dogs. As a result, the challenge of detecting palm weevils early on became the impetus for our company’s idea as the palm tree is an essential resource in the Middle East, playing a vital role in both cultural practices and economic development.
