Abstract
The agriculture problems requiring the use of small but multifunctional intelligent robots are identified. The main technical requirements and directions for development of such robots are systematized. The conceptual solution for creation of the agricultural robots with significant modernization potential for precision farming problems solution is proposed.

Key words
Precision farming, robotics, sampling, agricultural robot, automation.
