Muddy Machines builds robots that fix farmers’ urgent harvest labour shortage issues – helping them sustain and grow their output, and increase yields.

Their autonomous robots selectively harvest field vegetables, starting with green asparagus.

Supported by the two largest UK asparagus growers, they have built an experienced engineering team and received investments from both growers and angels.

They’ve won a £500k Innovate UK grant to develop a commercially viable version of their asparagus harvester. They are also working on another grant with a major grower for an additional crop.
