N2 - Agricultural robotics has received attention for approximately 20 years, but today there are only a few examples of the application of robots in agricultural practice.

The aim of this chapter is to quantify the economic benefits from the application of agricultural robots under a specific condition where such a benefit is assumed to exist, namely the case of early seeding and re-seeding in sugar beet.
