In most crops, the removal of weeds in the streets is controlled by machinery employing both mechanical and chemical means. However, this machinery is not effective in combating weeds growing between trees in the same row. The main problem is to avoid the obstacles posed by trees and poles, in the case of greenhouses, Currently this area between trees is treated manually, either by chemical means or by physical means. The aim of this project is to develop a team capable of combating weeds within rows of trees and subsequently analysing their behaviour in growing citrus fruits under mesh. The great innovation of the project is the possibility of combining chemical and mechanical control mechanisms in the same equipment that can be used to combat weeds in citrus fruits.
