Last week our team spent two days with Citrus Australia for their regional forums. It was a great chance to get out among growers and talk w**d control.

We brought along the B***o Robotics Grande and paired it with the WEED-IT Australia smart herbicide sprayer, so people could see it in action rather than just hear about it. B***o Grande does the driving, WEED-IT does the looking, and herbicide only gets sprayed where there's actually a w**d! Less chemical used, less time spent on it, and more attention freed up for the jobs that really need a person.

Thanks to Citrus Australia for having us, and to everyone who stopped by for a look and a chat.

Excited to see Citrus Australia bringing growers together for two Regional Forums, starting tomorrow, a great initiative getting real on farm insights in front of the industry.

We'll be onsite at both events demoing our B***o Robotics Grande autonomous platform, fitted with the WEED-IT Australia Herbicide Sprayer attachment.

Built for precision under tree and inter row spraying, it cuts labour and diesel costs while reducing herbicide inputs by up to 70%, all while spraying at optimal times for effective knockdown, without worrying about wind conditions.

📍 Murray Valley Regional Forum: Wed 5 August, 3-5pm, Coolgardie Farm, Mallee

📍Riverland Regional Forum: Thu 6 August, 9-11am, Monash Farm, Monash SA

Come have a look, ask questions and see how autonomous spraying is shaping up for citrus growers.

Huge congrats to the team at Vitonga Farms on welcoming their newest crew member, a fully autonomous robot that slashes and spot-sprays w**ds using camera and LiDAR technology, while detecting and avoiding people, vehicles, buildings and wildlife along the way.

Beyond the tech, we love what it means for the farm: battery powered with zero diesel or exhaust emissions, and light enough to reduce soil compaction compared to conventional machinery. That's smarter, cleaner farming in action.

Kudos to Citrus Ops Manager Hyuck Kevin Ju for driving this forward. It's one thing to have a good idea, and another to see it through.

We'll be at the Summerfruit Australia Conference 2026 at Marnong Estate next Wednesday and we can't wait!

Come and see the B***o Grande in action as it trails the mower, plus Cam will be speaking about automating your farm and the real benefits it brings.

It's shaping up to be a great day of conversations and real talk about where horticulture is headed. See you there!

A great morning at the Cherry Industry Conference demonstration at Flavell Fruits, showcasing the B***o Grande and mower in action.

Despite the rain, we had a fantastic turnout and enjoyed catching up with growers and industry members while demonstrating how automation can support orchard operations.

A big thank you to everyone who came along, and a special thanks to Andy and the team at Flavell Fruits for hosting.

We're hitting the road next week and heading to Wine Victoria's Smart Viticulture Field Days across two incredible vineyard locations, and we're bringing the B***o Grande and the mower along for a live demo.

📅 Wed 3rd June – Stonier Wines, Mornington Peninsula
📅 Thu 4th June – Lyons Will Estate, Macedon Ranges

If you haven't seen the B***o Grande in action yet, now's your chance. It's a fully electric, self-driving vehicle that takes the grunt work out of vineyard life. Paired with the autonomous electric mower, you can see exactly how it performs in the field.

Incredible to see the results and feedback from Ben Thomson as we close out year two of this project with .ai Grande pulling the UVC unit through the vineyard — and Ben showing us what the future of powdery mildew control actually looks like:

✅ No Diesel
✅ No Operator
✅ No Chemicals
✅ No Powdery Mildew

Under $10 to recharge. Zero emissions. Zero chemistry.
That's not just a triple bottom line win — that's a complete rethink of how we protect wine grapes.

Diesel shortages are hitting hard across the industry, but not everyone is feeling it.

Justin down at Cross Farms is able to power through this morning with his autonomous B***o, running fully electric and completely independent of fuel supply.

But it’s not just about fuel.

By investing in the B***o Robotics and the WEED-IT Australia Herbcide unit, he’s also reducing reliance on operators and achieving up to 60% savings on herbicide through targeted application.

Future proof your operation.
Less fuel reliance. Less labour pressure. More control.
