I have read the summary of an article about the exhibition of products for agriculture called 2023 World Ag Expo held last February in California (USA), and in which a huge number of robotic products were shown to help the work of the field.
I find this information very interesting because it tells us where field work is headed in the near future, and who is going to carry it out, a large part of which will be robots.
At the fair there were hundreds of companies with a multitude of automated solutions for field work.
I put as an example only some of them with some videos that are very instructive of what is coming.

Automation to eliminate unwanted plants after sowing

Small autonomous electric tractor
And many other companies. But all pointing in the same direction, having robotic products in the field that help to carry out the tasks (especially the most laborious ones) that people used to do.
The technological transition is taking place without some realizing it, and perhaps by the time they do it will be a bit late.
The future belongs to those who are open to new technologies and adapt to them as soon as possible. Complaining afterwards gets you nowhere
