	This is a automated robotic system developed by the engineer Mr. Jan Šlinský of Slovakia. It is a stationary technology whereby the gantry is attached at one end to a fixed joint and at the other has an electric motor propelling a wheel. ~~It is based on the~~ steel frame used as a carrier unit for different instruments. The ~~frame~~ is ~~fixed in the middle~~ of ~~the~~ circle, ~~from where it takes electricity and water~~ for irrigation. At the ~~outer end there is a wheel moving~~ the ~~frame around and~~ the ~~electric motor with~~ the ~~input power~~ of 0.~~75 kW.~~		This is a automated robotic system developed by the engineer Mr. Jan Šlinský of Slovakia. It is a stationary technology for the production of vegetables whereby the gantry is attached at one end to a fixed joint and at the other has an electric motor propelling a wheel. A steel frame is used as a carrier unit for different instruments. The fields are therefore circular, and the system is also known as "Agrocircle". The centre of every circle is served by water and electricity, for irrigation and power. Due to the rotation of the arm, the implements move in a spiral from the outside of the circle towards its centre. The spanning arm can be equipped with almost a complete set of implements, appliances used in vegetable production. At the outer end there is a wheel moving the frame around and the electric motor with the input power of 0.75 kW.

	The spanning arm can be equipped with almost a complete set of implements, appliances used in vegetable production. ~~Due to~~ the ~~rotation of~~ the ~~arm,~~ the ~~implements move in a spiral from~~ the ~~outside~~ of ~~the circle towards its centre~~. ~~The crop rows are in a spiral. The centre of every circle is served by water and electricity, for irrigation and power~~.

	The first installation of AGROKRUH® technology is in Brnov Les village Hrubý Šúr, Slovakia, about 30 km from Bratislava - the capital of the Slovak Republic. The area in question occupies 15 ha (150 000 m2) on the bank of Malý Dunaj (Small Danube) river. Approximately one half of the area consists of fields and the other half comprises flooded forest. Within the above mentioned area there are 15 cropping circles covering 2 hectares.
