Master crop steering in protected environments

Elevate your tomato yield and quality with data-driven crop steering

Maximizing the yield of tomato crops means ensuring plants produce fruit for as long as possible. Steering plant growth efficiently to meet desired crop outcomes is more often than not a complex challenge for commercial growers. The concept of crop steering is based on the idea that plants have different growth requirements at different stages of development. By providing the right environmental factors - such as: temperature and humidity, irrigation, and light - at each stage, growers can ensure that their crops are able to maximize growth and yield potential.

FarmRoad, our crop management software, offers industry-leading tomato plant steering capabilities and provides the insight you need to steer your crop towards more vegetative, generative growth or balanced growth, as and when required. By optimizing plant growth, you can maximize yields and improve fruit quality, whilst minimizing resource use.
