Optimize your Harvest for:

36% More Production Potential

30% Less Cost Per Kilogram

Introducing

Agave Field Management


The solution for accurately measuring and optimizing agave production.

Agave Field Management® identifies the slow growing fields to harvest first, letting the better performing fields keep growing.

“Sauza uses FruitScout, because harvesting just one week early, or one week late, can translate into $5-10M of losses.”

Servando Calderon
Director General, Sauza

With FruitScout you get accurate growth rates to target harvests, delivering a 36% improvement over harvesting randomly.

FruitScout's Agave Field Management
is the only solution accurate enough to enable this harvest optimization strategy.

Data as a Service (DaaS)

FruitScout Sells Data


Data as a Service (DaaS) means you’re not buying software or hardware, you’re buying data as a production input, just like fertilizer, labor, or equipment.

The price is determined by the level of accuracy you want to buy.

What’s included?

  • The service comes with all the tools to collect, explore, experiment on and make decisions with that data.

  • Software improvements and upgrades are included.

  • Agave Field Instrumentation and Agave Earth are included with the data under the same standard SaaS unlimited use, all inclusive enterprise license.

Industrial Strength Solution

Agave Field Management® is already managing

  • Thousands of fields

  • Across multiple regions and teams

  • Spread out over an area of 78,595 square kilometers

"Our harvest strategy is based on Fruitscout's data and its accuracy.  Otherwise, it's just guessing."

General Case


An average agave plant grows about 20% in its final year.

4-5 kg is average weight increase…

… some grow a lot more; some grow a lot less.

The strategy is to identify the fields that grow less, and harvest them first, allowing the faster growing ones to keep growing.  In the general case, there is a 25% improvement over harvesting randomly.

Digital Twin Case Study


Agave Earth Simulation of Realistic Agave Fields

  • 4M plants harvested

  • 5kg - 40kg range at harvest

  • 16kg average at the start of the harvest year

  • 20kg average at the end of the harvest year

Results from different strategies for harvesting the same fields:

  • Baseline random harvest yields 64.6M Tons

  • Optimal harvest yields 88.3M Tons

Harvesting from slowest to fastest growing fields results in a
‍36% improvement over randomly harvesting
