In the past decade, Chinese agriculture has been transforming from a small-scale fragmented smallholder economy to large-scale modern agriculture, which has prompted the development of mobile robot systems in agriculture. Multi-robot autonomous navigation has become the most fundamental and daunting challenge in this development process, involving autonomous control, path planning and other aspects. In this paper, the cooperative control strategies and path planning methods for agricultural mobile robots are described, and the application of path planning methods in different agricultural scenarios is analyzed in detail from the perspectives of both online and offline planning. The conclusions show that multi-robot collaborative path planning has been successfully applied to the navigation of agricultural robotic operation scenarios, and the future development should be towards the direction of scale, autonomy, and intelligence.
