THE FUTURE OF HORTICULTURE IS HERE
The only field robot capable of delivering net-zero farming
VISION
We're Changing The Way Farms Think About Labour
Our machines enable growers to grow more, produce locally and ensure that the food we eat is fresher and more sustainable. Our new category of field robots helps growers manage their labour-intensive crops by solving their biggest challenge, selective harvesting
Our Innovation Journey
SERVICES
We provide robotic farming-as-a-service and give growers a helping hand when they need it most
PRECISION
HARVESTING
Our asparagus harvester uses cutting edge AI to measure every single spear, cutting the ripe ones delicately whilst avoiding the immature spears, leaving them behind for another day.
YIELD PREDICTION
While Sprout's vision system is measuring everything it sees, its brain uses advanced algorithms and reinforcement learning to predict crop yields over the coming days and report them to growers.
INTELLIGENCE DRIVEN
Our company name alludes to the challenging conditions our field robots face. Using 3D cameras combined with deep learning and a host of other sensors and algorithms, Sprout makes sense of its environment avoiding obstacles and hazards in the field.
WHY MUDDY MACHINES
A small company, part of a huge community
