NOORDWIJKERHOUT, Netherlands (AP) — Theo works weekdays, weekends and nights and never complains about a sore spine despite performing hour upon hour of what, for a regular farm hand, would be backbreaking labor checking Dutch tulip fields for sick flowers. Photos You Should See View All 60 Images“You could also buy a very nice sports car," for the price of the robot, Visser said Tuesday — its makers say the robot costs 185,000 euros ($200,000). “But I prefer to have the robot because a sports car doesn’t take out the sick tulips from our field. Yeah, it is expensive, but there are less and less people who can really see the sick tulips,” he added. Theo van der Voort, who gave his name to the robot at WAM Pennings farm, and who retired after 52 years hunting for sick flowers, is impressed.

“I call our ducks the soldiers of our vineyards,” says managing director Corius Visser. The duck troops are cajoled on a 14-day circuit through the vineyard, eating and fertilizing the ground as they go. The winery's Indian runner ducks patrol for pests in the vineyard. Rodger Bosch/AFP/Getty ImagesAs a pioneering winemaker with industry clout – vines have being grown on the estate since the late 17th century – Vergenoegd Löw is hoping to convince others to adopt its approach. “We can be in a position where we say that we have (not just) the best runner ducks in South Africa, but also the world,” Visser argues.
