IRRIGATION SENSORS REDUCE WATER LOSS AND PROTECT CROP
7Sense has developed a wireless irrigationcontrol system that saves water, protects crops and frees up time for farmers. Using non-intrusive flow detection (international patent pending), the sensor detects any loss of water and alerts the farmer.The sensor gives farmers complete control of the irrigation process and decreases the need for manual monitoring. The sensor is easy to mount or retrofit to existing systems, meaning equipment can be modernised instead of replaced. It is also extremely simple to operate, as farmers only need to push one large button.

Our mission is to accelerate the transition to sustainable supplychains. Chill-Chain has created software that facilitates more feasible ways for companies to create efficient, transparent and sustainable supply chains, all while saving on logistics spend. The software provides revolutionary data and analytics to pinpoint inefficiencies within a supply chain, such as low vehicle fill, poor routing, driver capacity and empty runnings. Solutions can then be drawn, implemented and tracked in real time, as to how resource redistribution can increase utilisation and efficiency while also reducing carbon and monetary costs.

Digifield provides small and medium growers the chance to access directly international markets. As soon as growers become capable to cover a bigger part of the supply chain, their business model becomes more sustainable and rewarding. Wholesalers do benefit as well as they receive produce from a shorter supply chain and can differentiate against competition. Digifield does practically 3 things:1) Upscale growers skills; 2) Guarantee Quality with Remote Image Computing 3) Coordinate the Logistic between Grower and Wholesaler

We believe in a sustainable future in which not a single piece of perishable goes to loss. One-third of the food produced is wasted. We need to change how we store and transport perishables worldwide. Freshsens has developed an Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered platform supported by the Internet of Things (IoT) to prevent perishable loss by extending and predicting lifetime after harvest. By using the platform, our users can get substantial margins, fresher fruits & minimized losses.

iComplai is an early warning system for the early detection of risks in the food supply chain. The system serves both the buyers as well as the growers of the fresh fruit industry. The growers can benefit from early warnings that could impact their crops, for instance due to weather changes. Fruit buyers/ importers can see the potential risks with supplier and raw material selection and adjust their controls accordingly. iComplai platform scans daily for new risks, feeds them into the machine learning system and the results are sent customised to users, depending on their area of interest. Our product is already in the market and we are serving customers like Mars.

At Nat4Bio we develop organic coatings to protect fresh produce from spoilage and decay. Our coatings are transparent, odorless and tasteless, and their main functions are regulating the gas exchange between the fruit and the environment, delaying the ripening process, and providing active protection against microbial pathogens. Our MVP is being test on citrus, avocados and berries. It has shown high effectiveness against post-harvest pathogens (over 90% for Penicillium and 75% for Botrytis), and also strong results in shelf life extension (+5 days and 15% weight loss reduction on avocados, better firmness and reduced browning).

At RapidAIM, we provide highly accurate, real-time pest detection information and forecasts to growers so that they can take faster and more targeted management action. Our award-winning IoT sensors use capacitance sensing and the world’s narrowband networks to send instant alerts to the grower’s phone via our app when target pests are present. This enables growers target their control at the time of day when pest are most active and then validate when the control is working. RapidAIM technology can be set-up in minutes and rolled out in high densities across wide areas.

Up to 50% of the food we produce goes to waste, amounting to over $2.6 trillion in losses, including $700 and $900 in environmental and social costs, respectively, every year. As a result, there is a dire need to develop solutions that will safely and sustainably extend the shelf-life of food. At Ryp Labs, we've developed a natural and safe formulation that can be applied to avariety of surfaces, including stickers, labels, and sheets, to increase the shelf-life of produce. In pilots with Walmart, Aldi, Westfalia and others, our food-safe sticker, StixFresh, has been shown to double the shelf-life of fresh produce, by simply peeling and applying the sticker to lose produce or its packaging.
