Benificial distributing system that can be adapted from 2 to 16 rows. Entomatic™ is a simple modular machine which is highly adaptable and can be configured to suit almost all glasshouse crops- soft fruit, protected salads and ornamentals and any growing system. It has been designed to be easy to configure and intuitive to use. Entomatic™ generates an airflow into which the insects or mites and their carrier are gently and homogenously introduced. The beneficials travel through the flexible tubes to the dispensing points (anywhere between 2 and 16) and are released onto the crop.
The EcoDis solution can be used for dispensing and distributing living organisms, such as different life-stages of beneficial insects and mites.
With the help of the EcoDis System mounted onto a drone it is possible to cover most types of crops and even difficult terrain - without risk of soil compaction.

Buntata is an Android application that has been designed to help users identify plant pests and diseases with no a-priori knowledge. Buntata provides a visual key for the identification of diseases by displaying example images of symptoms. A user visually selects the part of the plant that is affected and Buntata displays images of recorded symptoms. Picking the image that most closely resembles the symptoms shows detailed information about possible causes, background information, diagnostics and control methods to help deal with the cause. Diseases can exhibit similar symptoms. Buntata displays diseases with similar symptoms together allowing easy comparison to help users identify the correct one.
