Abstract. The article is devoted to the application of multi-agent robotic systems in agriculture. The article considers various examples of the application of multi-agent systems, such as route optimization, mechanical weeding, weed mapping and harvesting. It also considers the issue of the economic feasibility of using robot teams, provides a comparison with existing systems on the market.
Keywords: artificial intelligence, robots, multi-agent systems, precision agriculture
