The article analyzes the possibilities of using computer vision for agricultural tasks. Such areas of implementation as agricultural machinery management, seed sowing, seedling cultivation, crop care and harvesting, processing, transportation and storage of fruits are considered in detail. The results of the application of image processing methods obtained from video cameras installed in various positions are presented: in the cabin of agricultural machinery, above boxes with seedlings, on agricultural robots. To implement these methods, programs written in Python using the OpenCV library were used.

Key words: robotic manipulator, computer vision, agromechatronics, image recognition, agricultural robots, automated harvesting, robot control
