José Marchetti, RM/BD for The Americas at Ecorobotix, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, "Bringing the ARA sprayer to Idaho and Oregon through Campbell Tractor Co. is a milestone for us. This collaboration will empower farmers with the precision and efficiency needed to enhance their productivity and sustainability."
Scott Shillington, Operations Manager at Campbell Tractor, echoed this sentiment, saying, "We are thrilled to be at the forefront of the shift towards AI in agriculture. Working with Ecorobotix and bringing their high precision sprayer to our customers aligns perfectly with our mission to provide advanced, high-quality Ag solutions. The ARA sprayer is a great addition to our portfolio, and we are excited to see the positive impact it will have on our farming communities."
Exciting times are ahead: This partnership follows Ecorobotix's recent agreement with Keithly-Williams Seeds, marking their first two US dealers. The US branch of Ecorobotix, established in late 2023, is rapidly expanding its dealer network, building on the solid foundation of its Swiss headquarters. Interest in the ARA sprayer is taking off in the Americas, with farmers and agricultural businesses showing enthusiastic support for this innovative technology. As more dealers come on board, the future looks bright for Ecorobotix's expansion across the continent.
