farm-ng empowers the agricultural community with affordable, adaptable robotics and AI solutions so they can adopt more productive, profitable, and sustainable farming practices. Our vision is to cultivate a future where farms thrive and healthy food is produced in a sustainable and equitable way.

For farms that want to make their operations more autonomous and prosperous, the Amiga is a modular electric robot powered by AI that’s adaptable for multiple environments, tasks, and crops. We made our platform accessible to farms of any size so they can realize unprecedented productivity and future-proof their business. The Amiga Developer Unit is a bundle of the Amiga robot, its I/Os, and an AI computer we call the Brain. These tools enhance data collection, visualization, and analysis while accelerating time to in-field deployment.

We are looking for colleagues to join our mission to drive agricultural innovation with open, adaptable, and accessible robotics and AI solutions. We believe that agricultural innovation is impossible without the involvement of developers, researchers, and students who share a common vision. Together, we can create a global farming community that’s more productive, prosperous, and sustainable so that everyone has access to healthier food.
