Game changing fruit-tech for productivity and sustainability

Economic conditions in fruit growing and horticulture are still very challenging, with input and production costs increasing faster than the sale price of produce.

Agri-TechE members argue that innovation has potential to transform the sector. Many growers are working closely with researchers and technologists to co-develop solutions to industry challenges.

Here we capture some of the technologies and tools that are becoming available for:

• precision targeting of inputs
• management of pests and diseases
• automating cultivation and harvesting
• enhancing pollination
• controlling the growing environment

Take a look through our flipbook below to find out more, including some essential first steps to accelerate technology adoption.
