This document summarizes developments in automation technologies for tree fruit production being researched by Penn State University and industry partners. Key areas of research include automated fruit transport and bin filling to reduce labor costs, monitoring systems for insect pests and plant stress, autonomous crop load scouting for timely management decisions, and reconfigurable vehicles that can perform multiple orchard tasks like spraying and harvesting. Field trials are also testing new high-density orchard training systems. The goal is to develop precision technologies that increase productivity and efficiency for specialty crop growers.
