Large Tree Model: AI technology changes the way we identify crops and weeds

Artificial intelligence technology is opening up unprecedented possibilities in the agricultural sector. In early February this year, Carbon Robotics—a U.S.-based company specializing in AI and agricultural robots—publicly introduced the world’s first Large Plant Model (LPM), marking a milestone in how humans manage and identify plant species.

Pioneering AI solutions for agriculture

LPM is built on a vast and diverse dataset, including detailed information on millions of plant and weed species, soil characteristics, climate factors, and plant growth stages. Through training with global data, this model creates an unprecedented foundation, enabling accurate classification and identification of crops and weeds with high precision.

Practical applications in crop and weed management

LPM’s capabilities go beyond recognition. The system supports farmers and forestry experts in making decisions about crop management, weed control, and optimizing growth conditions. By analyzing images and environmental data, this technology helps increase yields and reduce input costs for agricultural activities.

The future of technology-driven agriculture

The emergence of LPM represents a significant shift in how the agriculture industry approaches crop and weed management. With comprehensive analysis and high accuracy, this technology will help agricultural producers better adapt to the challenges of sustainable and efficient farming.
