Apple Field Management®
According to Cornell University, growers who embrace precision crop load management can earn $5 to $10 additional revenue per tree per year.
But there’s a problem
Counting and sizing fruit with clipboards and calipers just doesn’t scale. Small sample sizes risk being less accurate. It can feel like you’re flying blind.
“FruitScout isn’t just replacing manual counting and sizing. They provide me with a way to manage to specific targets that improve both the margins and predictability of my business.”
