Turkish student Alara Guler from a tech college in Uskudar, a district in Istanbul, created a robot called TohumBot which won her a second place in the Taiwan International Science Fair.

According to the Turkish Hürriyet newspaper, Alara’s TohumBot was designed for working small and medium agricultural lands without any human participation.

This robot will reduce the cost of labor, time and money for the same amount of work and increase income in the agricultural sector.
