Insero
Insero and Blue White Robotics are working towards total sprayer automation by fully integrating the AgOtter spray controller into Blue White Robotics’ Managed Farm. The company believes the benefits of an autonomous farming operation are clear regarding increased safety and added reliability. Additionally, Insero officials believe the improvements in productivity and efficiency are near-limitless. The connectivity is achieved from a Blue White Robotics-managed farm. The added cost-efficiency is through a seamlessly integrated AgOtter spray controller, which fine-tunes the spray process. Speed variations and uneven terrain, plugged nozzles, calibration, proof of application, and more are all managed through a sprayer that’s upgraded to be dynamically controlled on an integrated platform. The application becomes uniform regardless of speed or pressure. A record is available from work order to a verified spray map of crop blocks with built-in proof of application rate. The company asserts that this alliance of two separate companies will dramatically reduce labor costs while helping eliminate costly errors. Inteligistics has been offering its services to the ag industry to convert the manually managed fresh produce supply chains into digitally transformed smart supply chains. The company believes that digitizing the supply chain can provide users with the real-time visibility they need to deliver the superior customer experiences that buyers demand. In addition, the company believes digital transformation of complex supply chains, such as the highly perishable fresh produce, ensures high quality, maximizes operational and labor efficiency, reduces waste, and helps to sense demand in fast changing market conditions and manage the supply accordingly. Digitizing supply chain improves supply chain visibility, sustainability, traceability and food safety capabilities. Inteligistics has been working with many of the major fresh produce companies and retailers throughout the world, implementing its end-to-end visibility solutions and supply chain digitization processes. The company urges potential users to contact them for a brief supply chain digitization demonstration at info@inteligistics.com. iTrade reveals that it is in the midst of some significant developments for its customers. In addition to preparing to launch its next-gen trading platform, the company has released OrderMaestro—a new order management and sales solution tailored to dining operators and distributors; a new freight module that optimizes load planning/optimization and makes every purchase order more profitable; and a new trace solution for enhanced farm-to-fork visibility and food safety event responses. Following substantial press coverage at CES 2022, Naïo Technologies is scaling up: its brand-new multi-crop/multi-task robot Orio was selected among TOP 10 New Products at the recognized World Ag Expo 2022. Naïo Technologies has been active in the United States since 2019 with Dino, its mechanical weeding robot for vegetables. The company has recently taken things to the next level, with its vineyard robot Ted that was presented during CES 2022. Now with Orio, Naïo has a new autonomous high precision robot, dedicated to large vegetable production. Orio is GPS and camera guided, equipped with multiple sensors running on an algorithm based on AI. Orio offers high precision weeding (inter-row and intra-row) and a very precise guidance of the implements attached in the center of the robot. Orio can also carry any implement at the rear of the robot with its three- point attachment. High accuracy seeding is an additional service Orio can provide to the growers allowing enhanced results when combined with weeding. Fully electric, Orio’s work rate is up to 24 acres per 24 hours.
