Unexpected weather not only affects the quality of the fruits or the availability of water, but also the behavior of pests that reduce the profitability of crops such as blueberries.

It is because of that Blueberries Consulting, in its commitment to promote innovation in the blueberry industry, made an alliance with Farm Monitor, a company dedicated to facilitating the monitoring of crops, recording the data of their pests and making them quickly accessible to the producer.

The data processor used by Farm Monitor quintuples the performance of man hours per hectare, allowing the monitoring of more surface, with greater precision.

Its georeferencing system allows the producer to easily visualize, in their mobile application or on the web platform, where the problem areas are located. This information prevents pesticides from being wasted in areas of the crop where they are not needed, just at a time when the state of the current world economy has raised the cost of agricultural production.

The efficient use of pesticides also improves the value of their fruits, by reducing the possibility of rejections in destination markets due to exceeding the limits of chemical residues in fruits and even opening the door to high-value markets, where regulations on their use are even stricter. 

As agreed by the alliance between both companies, after the 30-day free trial offered by Farm Monitor to all your new customers, using the code “BBC Innovation” you get an exclusive discount on your chosen plan.

Farming Monitor not only offers fast information processing, but also solutions for pest control through the application of pesticides or the release of natural enemies on the affected plants through drones, planning their flight based on the coordinates of georeferencing data monitoring.
