Built for a Pre-Great War uranium mining waste disposal concern, the Agricola Robots can often be found in abandoned mines and nuclear waste facilities across the American wastelands. They are extremely well-armored and, more importantly, use vacuum tubes instead of integrated microcircuits like most technology in the Fallout universe. This technology also makes them almost impervious to the electromagnetic pulse weapons that are so deadly to other robots. Agricola Robots are most often equipped with drills and lasers for cutting rock. Used against human beings, they are quite effective.
Behind the scenes
Agricola is the Latin word for "farmer". The connection of the name to the use of the robot appears to be nonexistent, as the robot's job is for waste disposal, not farming.
Appearances in games
Agricola robots were to appear in Van Buren.
