Abstract— The agriculture industry plays an important role in the needs of humankind. The rising of the world population, as well as the decrease in the number of workers in the agricultural sector, calls for an increased demand for food suppliers. In this paper, we propose a novel agricultural robot based on CNC machine namely FaRo (FArming RObot), for farming crops autonomously without any human intervention. What differentiates the FaRo from other farming platforms is the ability to carrying out the farming process from seeding to the harvesting of crops. Moreover, FaRo harvesting tool will be explained and demonstrated.
