Leveraging a fleet of smaller 60 and 90 HP tractors, Sabanto has autonomously tilled, planted, seeded, weeded, applied and mowed across Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Missouri, Nebraska, Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsin and Texas.

The companies partnered to mount a Martin Lishman Mini-Spray 125 liter demount sprayer with 3.5m boom on Manterra's XAG R150 fully autonomous utility vehicle to create a go-anywhere unmanned GPS controlled spraying system.

Hico Capital, a U.S. subsidiary of South Korean trading company SK Networks, invested $4 million in Sabanto Ag, a Chicago-based company that offers farming as a service.

Farmers and ag business partners have the opportunity to experience a firsthand look at Raven’s OMNiDRIVE driverless ag technology at an Autonomy Demo Day hosted by Jenner Precision July 19 in Fairbury, Ill.
