Three students from Milton District High School in Milton, Ontario, won first place at a provincial farm robotics competition on March 5, 2026. The winning team, made up of students Angad S., Aarnav S., and Graylon W., beat out other finalists from across the province after months of preparation.
The students began working on their project in November 2025 to create a technical solution for a local business called Open Spaces Farm. They designed a working robot prototype and a website to support it, using computer-aided drafting to build the model from scratch.
According to school officials, the judges were impressed by the team’s ability to create a fully functional robot and the quality of their digital design work. The project was part of the AgRobotics competition, which is a provincial program that asks students to solve real-world farming problems using new technology.
The competition is organized through a partnership between the Ontario Council for Technology Education and Innovation Farms Ontario. The program aims to help students learn how to use modern tools and engineering to improve the agricultural industry.
