中文摘要
COVID-19对农业部门产生了严重影响。据估计,在未来1- 2年,由于疫情和英国脱离欧盟,体力劳动者的可用性将减少75%。此外,每种作物都有很大一部分被浪费。迫切需要一种创新、高效的收割机,以最大限度地减少浪费,并取代供应非常短缺的相当大比例的体力劳动。RoboVeg的三头收割机将通过选择性收割来实现这一目标。RoboVeg是一家快速发展的英国中小企业,其核心团队拥有数十年的实践经验,包括Mike菲利普斯,Peter Keeling和Estwick乔治。RoboVeg 5年后项目收入预计将达到1300万英镑。
英文摘要
COVID-19 has had a severe effect on the agricultural sector. It is estimated that, over the next 1--2 years, there will be a 75% reduction in the availability of manual labourers due to the pandemic and the UK leaving the EU. Additionally, a large proportion of each crop is wasted. There is an urgent need for an innovative, efficient harvester that will minimise waste and replace the sizeable proportion of manual labour that is in very short supply. RoboVeg's three-headed harvester rig will do just that through selective harvesting. RoboVeg is a rapidly growing UK SME, with a core team that has decades of practical experience comprising Mike Phillips, Peter Keeling and Estwick George. RoboVeg will generate a year-5 post-project revenue of an estimated £13M.
