In 2023, Bernardino and Mendonça set out to create Trovador—a six-legged robot able to walk on rugged slopes and plant trees. Their first €15 ($17) prototype, built from recycled parts, planted 28 percent faster than humans with a 90 percent survival rate. The saplings also thrived without any post-planting care. The two are currently working to improve the efficiency of the robot and hope that their current prototype is able to handle longer operations on steeper terrains.

Lt Col Charlie Brown humans still replant trees. In fact a good planter can plant approximately 1000 trees per day.

Sorry, I dont buy the saplings survival rate was due to being planted by a robot. Ive planted saplings and there's a whole lot of reasons for their survival or death.
