Autonomous Nation returns on September 17th for a full day focused on how autonomous systems are reshaping the future of agriculture. If you work in autonomy, robotics, policy, transportation, or modern farm operations, this is the place to see where the industry is headed and who is building it.

Grand Farm’s Autonomous Nation conference brings together policymakers, industry leaders, startup teams, researchers, and innovators who are exploring how autonomy can reduce workforce shortages, eliminate inefficiencies, and close technology gaps across agriculture and related sectors. Conversations will highlight the latest advancements in robotics, sensing, autonomous equipment, and the systems that make automation safer and more reliable.

The morning sessions will dig into policy frameworks, deployment barriers, workforce readiness, and the practical applications that matter most to growers and industry teams. In the afternoon, the event moves outside for live autonomous demonstrations where attendees will see real machines, real systems, and real data at work in field conditions.
