Abstract

A system and a method for automation of agricultural treatments. The system receives a set of instructions for the agricultural treatment. The set of instructions may include a type of agricultural treatment, and a target location. Further, the system may determine chemical parameters including a composition, a dosage, and a quantity of a chemical required for the agricultural treatment. Further, the system may be configured to navigate the robot to the target location. Further, the system may detect a spraying section based on the type of agricultural treatment. Subsequently, the system may determine a speed of the robot, a proximity of the robot to the spraying section, and a rate of chemical flow. Further, the system may be configured to control the robot. Finally, the system may be configured to dispense the chemical using a spraying equipment.
