The Solinftec Solix is a weeding robot by Solinftec. It is commercially available and deployed on farms worldwide. Compatible crops include corn, soybeans, cotton.

The Solinftec Solix is an autonomous solar-powered scouting and targeted-spray robot deployed commercially across corn and soybean fields in the US Midwest. Moving continuously through crop rows, the Solix uses computer vision and AI to identify individual weed plants and apply micro-doses of herbicide at the plant level — a dramatically more precise approach than conventional boom spraying. Because the robot's solar panels keep it powered indefinitely in the field, it can provide near-continuous coverage of large row-crop farms across the growing season. Solinftec operates the Solix on a per-acre subscription model rather than selling the hardware outright, which eliminates the upfront capital cost for growers. The service includes data reporting on weed pressure maps and application records for agronomic and compliance purposes.

The automatic weeding robot market hit $2.6 billion in 2025 and is growing at 27.2% annually — the fastest rate in any agricultural technology segment. Laser-based systems eliminate 90%+ of herbicide use. The era of blanket chemical spraying is ending, and the farms that adapt first will have a structural cost advantage that compounds every season.
14 min readWeeding robots are the fastest-growing segment of agricultural robotics. These AI-powered machines identify and eliminate weeds with surgical precision, reducing herbicide use by up to 90% and eliminating the need for manual weeding crews.
