UKKÖ Robotics is Heading to EuroTier 2024

We’ve got some exciting news: The UKKÖ team is packing our bags (and our robots) and heading to EuroTier 2024 in Hanover, Germany, this November!

EuroTier is one of the world’s largest trade shows for professional animal farming and livestock management, and this year’s theme, “We Innovate Animal Farming”, couldn’t be a better fit for UKKÖ’s mission of creating automated solutions that help farmers do more with less.

As one of the few Canadian companies attending, we’re proud to be representing Canada, showcasing our smart farming tech, and debuting the ROVA|MICRO, our smallest and most versatile robot yet. Designed for homesteaders and small-scale farmers, the ROVA|MICRO is built to help tackle routine tasks that take up valuable time and energy. We can’t wait to share it with the farming community!

What’s Happening at EuroTier 2024?

EuroTier is the gathering place for groundbreaking solutions in animal farming. This year’s focus on innovation is especially timely as farmers everywhere are facing pressing challenges like labour shortages, the push for sustainability, and a growing focus on animal welfare.

The conversation at EuroTier will be about real-world solutions—How do we balance efficiency with ethics? How can we embrace sustainable practices without compromising productivity? And where does automation fit into the future of farming? We’re excited to be part of the discussion, and hopefully the solution.

Introducing the ROVA|MICRO

One of the highlights at our booth will be the ROVA|MICRO, the latest addition to our automated barns and mobile coops. We built it with homesteaders and smaller farms in mind to help simplify day-to-day operations like automating feeding schedules and monitoring livestock.

Here’s how the ROVA|MICRO makes life easier for homesteaders and small farms:

Compact Design‍

The ROVA|MICRO is small but powerful. It fits into tight spaces while offering the same accuracy and reliability as our larger models.

Saves You Time‍

It takes care of repetitive tasks like feeding and livestock monitoring, giving you more time to focus on bigger priorities, like growing your farm (or just catching your breath).

Reduces Waste‍

The ROVA|MICRO is efficient, helping you cut down on waste and use resources more wisely, which is key as farming moves toward sustainability.

We’ll be showing off the ROVA|MICRO at EuroTier, so drop by our booth to see it in action!

Why Innovation Matters at EuroTier

This year’s theme, “We Innovate Animal Farming”, reflects the real changes happening in farming worldwide. Farmers are dealing with tough realities—whether it’s the pressure to reduce environmental impact or the ongoing labour shortage. But with these challenges come opportunities to find better ways to farm.

Here are the key trends we’re excited to learn more about at EuroTier this year:

Animal Welfare: How can we care for animals while keeping farms efficient? We’re looking forward to learning about new systems for housing, feeding, and monitoring that are helping keep livestock healthier and improving overall welfare.

Sustainability: Climate change is something farmers can’t ignore. We’re excited to learn about technology and strategies that are helping cut down on emissions, waste, and water use, and helping farms become more sustainable.

Automation: Labour shortages are tough, but robotics are stepping in to help. We’re eager to see how automation is making tasks like milking and barn cleaning more efficient and freeing up farmers' time for other important work.

Representing Canadian Farmers

We’re proud to be one of the few Canadian companies attending EuroTier this year. It’s a great opportunity to showcase our smart farming technology and connect with farmers and industry professionals from around the world. Canada has always had a strong agricultural tradition, and we’re honoured to represent that legacy as both small-scale farmers and innovators.

Where to Find Us at EuroTier

If you’re heading to EuroTier 2024, you’ll find us at Hall 17, Booth A43. We’ll be doing live demos of the ROVA|MICRO, showing exactly how this little robot can make a big difference on your farm. Whether you’re curious about how automation can fit into your daily operations or just want to chat about the future of farming, we’d love to meet you!

Stay tuned to our social media for updates and behind-the-scenes glimpses as we get closer to the event. See you in Hanover!
