African Blue: real-time climate and plant health visibility improves crop management
With over 470 ha of blueberry production, African Blue needed to unify farm data to improve crop...
Access reliable and timely plant health and environmental data and become pest-proof, disease-free.
Facing relentless challenges from plant pests and diseases, protected cropping growers strive to create the optimal environment and ensure plant health to meet their contractual supply targets. With traditional growing methods mostly relying on manual data capture, they often get delayed access to critical environmental and plant health insights, which prevents any outbreak detection and slows crop protection.
FarmRoad, our crop management software, leverages digital agronomy and gives you comprehensive visualization and analysis of your microclimates and plant health status to detect early signs of stress and environmental variation at a farm, compartment and sector level. Detecting when conditions are favourable allows you to respond swiftly and proactively combat these threats. Make data-driven crop management decisions and ensure your commercial success.
Effective pest and disease management reduces losses by both protecting your crops and reducing spend on treatments. Take a data-driven approach to safeguarding your plants with a clear picture of your microclimates and plant health in real-time. Ensure your farming operations remain profitable and sustainable for years by unifying your farm data in one seamless crop management software.
For many growers, combating Botrytis is a significant challenge. Identify threats weeks before human scouts would spot it with real-time alerts via email, SMS or WhatsApp. Get notified of conditions leading to outbreaks, such as combined moderate temperature, low VPD and high humidity for an extended period.
Anticipate risk of weather events or diseases to take proactive actions and avoid crop losses. Track pests and diseases over time and identify relationships between outbreak prevalence and climatic conditions. Adjust your growing environment and practices accordingly.
Pests and diseases can diminish crop quality and impact your yields. Effective pest and disease management maintains the quality of your crops, making them more marketable and appealing to consumers. Keep your customers delighted with top-quality produce.
FarmRoad delivers the insights you need. Harness plant science and AI models for high-value crops developed by our in-house agronomy experts and data scientists.
Widely communicate observations, photos and actions in FarmRoad’s activity feed. Get a centralized, custom visualization of all your digital agronomy data, on desktop and mobile, in our data studio. Set up custom alerts by email, SMS or WhatsApp to identify risks of disease or problematic microclimates as they happen.
Complete crop registration in half the time and easily log pest and disease threats by entering data directly into FarmRoad. This eliminates double handling and ensures your workforce spends more time on the farm. Efficient and consistent data capture gives the information you need to manage plant health and your growing environment.
Automatically capture and visualize temperature, relative humidity, CO2, PAR, RAD, EC and barometric pressure readings, as well as plant temperature or soil moisture thanks to FarmRoad’s wireless sensor network. Efficient and consistent environmental and plant health monitoring provides the information you need.
