Abstract
[fre] L'agrionique, concept né de l'intégration de l'électronique dans les matériels agricoles, devrait contribuer de façon significative à la fois à la substitution croissante de la machine à la main-d'œuvre que l'on observe en agriculture (automatismes) et à la maîtrise des coûts de production (meilleur contrôle des intrants : semences, produits phytosanitaires,...). A moyen terme, on devrait voir la commercialisation de tracteurs et d'automoteurs conventionnels fortement automatisés et des premières réalisations de la robotique agricole (engins de récolte de fruits, robots de traite). Toutefois, la croissance des marchés de l'agrionique reste conditionnée par l'émergence d'entreprises de taille suffisante pour bénéficier d'un "effet-volume" permettant d'abaisser les coûts industriels, d'implanter des réseaux de distribution et de maintenance performants et enfin de financer une recherche-développement particulièrement onéreuse. [eng] Agrionics, new concept integrating electronics and fam equipment, is projected to have a significant contribution both in the increasing substitution of manpower by machine observed in agriculture and in the control of production costs (best use of farm inputs as seeds, pests, etc.). In the mid-term, conventional tractors and self-propelled machines, should have been highly automatised, and the first achievement of faming robots shouls have appear (fruit crop and cow milking robots). However the growth of agrionics markets keeps conditioned by large scale enterprises, to profit by a "volume-effect" allowing to cut down industrial costs, to set up efficient distribution and maintenance networks, and finally to finance a very expensive research and development.
