Using this solution, you will also be able to put the cursor at the end of newly text.

final TextEditingController _controller = TextEditingController();

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return Scaffold(
    body: Center(child: TextField(controller: _controller)),
    floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
      onPressed: () {
        _controller.text = "Hello";

        // this changes cursor position
        _controller.selection = TextSelection.fromPosition(TextPosition(offset: _controller.text.length));
        setState(() {});
      },
    ),
  );
}
