Which tasks are exposed

Risk applies to individual tasks—not to a person or an entire occupation.

Task	Risk
assessing plants or animals	47%
planning production operations	42%
preparing materials and equipment	38%
field or production work	33%
controlling nutrition and conditions	27%
detecting disease and deviations	17%
recording indicators	6%
evaluating output quality	3%

What the score means

The score for Farmer reflects the share of formalised repeatable work, the availability of digital data and the feasibility of robotics. Tasks involving accountability, physical variability and professional judgement are much better protected.

AI exposure

The share of cognitive, textual, visual or analytical work that current AI systems can technically assist with or perform.

25%

Robotics

The extent to which robots, autonomous machinery and computer vision can perform physical operations in a prepared environment.

45%

Routine work

The share of operations that repeat, follow stable rules and produce a predictable result.

50%

Digitalization

How much of the input, workflow and output already exists in digital form.

35%

Business incentive

The economic incentive to automate based on task volume, labor cost, frequency and implementation cost.

37%

Human moat

Protection created by accountability, trust, empathy, licensing, negotiation and unpredictable real-world environments.

77%

Task map

AI replaces ↔ AI augments

Why technology can change this work

digital tools reduce preparation and control time
repeatable physical operations can be mechanised or robotised in structured environments
many cases still require professional judgement
key information often emerges only through direct work
