Das sind die Top 20 Startups der FRUIT LOGISTICA 2024

Bloomfield Logo

Plant Inspection Technology

Plants need constant inspection to ensure predictable, well-timed harvests and protect them from pests and diseases. Specialty crops rely on human inspectors and drones to do those assessments. Yet, both methods have significant limitations, particularly for specialty crops. Bloomfield overcomes all these limitations with automated, direct line-of-site inspection using imaging and deep learning to assess the health and performance of each and every plant, regardless of plant type, geo-location or number. The result is predictable, larger and higher quality yields.

Fotoniq Logo

We developed sustainable and durable coatings for existing and new greenhouses. This provides them with the opportunity to improve light conditions in their greenhouses. The first permanent PAR+ coating makes light diffuse without light loss. The diffuse light is evenly distributed both horizontally and vertically improving the light and climate conditions for the crops. This results in improved product quality and productivity. The first trials in uncontrolled environments provided positive results of up to almost 6% production increase (tomato use case).

An additional benefit is that PAR+ replaces seasonal coatings, thus microplastic entering the environment.

Freya Cultivation Systems has developed a novel cultivation platform for commercial greenhouses to double productivity and increase per-plant profitability. The innovative platform - AEROFRAME - can produce leafy green yields over 120kg/m2/year and utilizes mobile, low-energy ultrasonic irrigators. The increased plant density also lowers per-plant costs, such as heating, cooling and facility upkeep and therefore increases facility profitability.
