Division I
Division I competitors represent universities and four-year colleges tackling some of agriculture's most pressing challenges.
From Carnegie Mellon's fire blight detection robot for apple orchards to the University of Hawai'i's trunk-climbing palm pest control system, these teams apply cutting-edge AI, computer vision, LiDAR, and robotics to create deployable solutions.
Projects span every farming domain, from strawberry harvesting and blueberry weeding to drone-assisted livestock management and silo safety. International teams from the United Kingdom, India, Turkey, Egypt, Ghana, Peru, Australia, and beyond bring a global lens to local farming problems.
