The VideometerLab Instrument is an instrument for multispectral image acquisition. It is used for reflectance imaging and optionally fluorescence and transmittance imaging. Together with the VideometerLab software, it is used for both exploratory analysis, for calibration model construction and for routine quality control in a wide range of application areas. The Videometer technology provides accuracy, robustness and highly reproducible measurements.
The company Agdia provides a range of tests for specific plant pathogens. AmplifyRP XRT and XRT+ kits provide real-time isothermal nucleic acid amplification and detection in a portable and easy-to-use format. Using AmplifyRP, end-users can obtain the same high level of sensitivity and specificity as PCR but with some distinct advantages: crude sample preparation, ready-to-use amplification reagents, pre-optimized and validated, real-time results in 30 minutes or less, lower equipment cost than PCR / qPCR. AmpliFire is a portable, battery-powered, isothermal fluorometer that performs amplification and detection in as little as 10 minutes when paired with AmplifyRP XRT and XRT+ kits.
AmplifyRP® Acceler8® (manufacurer Agdia) enables users to rapidly amplify TCDVd RNA at a single operating temperature using only a crude sample extract in portable heat block equipment. Amplified product is then tested in an Amplicon Detection Chamber where clear "yes / no" results are read visually on a lateral flow strip (much like a pregnancy test). Results are read visually on a lateral flow strip that is housed within the detection chamber. This chamber is also designed to prevent amplicons from escaping and contaminating future assays. At the moment a limited number of assays are available, but the system is expandable.
Ecoation is a plant and grower centric platform that merges deep biology, automation, sensing, artificial intelligence, intelligence augmentation, and robotics to change the way we produce and protect our food. At ecoation, we know that farming is one of this world’s most honourable professions. On any given day, new challenges arise and we rely on the people who put food on our tables to rise up and meet them. We also know that growing is ultimately a numbers game, so we work tirelessly to get you the information you need, when you need it, so that you can make the best possible decisions.
Genie® II is a sophisticated instrument that enables the sensitive detection of bacteria and viruses at a molecular level. This powerful and extremely flexible platform allows isothermal amplification of DNA and RNA to take place in a compact device designed to run any isothermal amplification method that employs target detection by fluorescence measurement. In trials the Genie® II proved to be a very easy-to-use, robust, portable instrument; invaluable for use in the field.
agroNET is a cloud-based platform acting as a hub for all farm operations, enabling complete farm asset management (tractors, machinery, irrigation systems, diesel generators, weather stations, insect traps, sensors etc.) and activity management and monitoring, which is the basic building block of digital farming. The platform provides a range of expert data analytics services designed to provide just-in-time guidance and to enable advanced automation of activities and labour savings. agroNET comes with different configurations, tailored to the needs of vineyards, orchards, vegetable production, arable crop and poultry production. It includes environmental monitoring, connection to smart traps and disease prediction.
Use of sexual confusion (mating disruption) to control the moth tuta absoluta in tomato. If there is no encounter between the sexes, there is no reproduction and the females do not lay the fertile eggs.
The Semios platform is a powerful tool in yield improvement that helps growers assess and optimize their response to insect, disease and plant health conditions in real-time. Semios is used for on-site sensing, big data and predictive analytics solutions for permanent crops including the vine, tree nut and tree fruit. Semios blankets each orchard block with a mesh network – allowing them to install remote-controlled pheromone dispensers, camera traps for pests, soil moisture sensors or leaf-wetness devices. Images are compiled per block for summary reports providing accurate and up-to-date pest pressure information.
Combats insects of Tuta absoluta ( 30cm x 100m )
Scoutbox uses image-based insect detection for sticky traps. It is revolutionizing insect monitoring technology by combining image recognition and sophisticated machine learning algorithms. Easy to use, durable, reliable and time saving. See where harmful insects (Whiteflies, Thrips, Leaf miners) and beneficals (nesidiocoris & Macrolophus) are concentrated on an easy-to-read map on your laptop for effective pest control. Scoutbox can read up to 300 trap plates per day for you with the push of a button.
