Early Warning Prediction and Prevention Platform for Pests and Diseases in Horticulture

Bridging critical gaps in horticulture, our Early Warning Prediction and Prevention Platform empowers fruit (beachhead: apple) farmers through a multi-layered technology, offering proactive, data-driven insights to combat pests and diseases — boosting biodiversity and resilience from the ground up.

Our multi-layered technological framework:

The first layer focuses on Early Warning Prediction — providing earlier predictions and accommodating the critical 3-4 day delay in response time, which is often needed with biopesticides, due to microorganism activity. This ensures rapid and effective action.

The second layer emphasizes Prevention — this is where we facilitate the transition from chemical pesticides to more sustainable solutions like biopesticides and biocontrol agents, leveraging insights from our Knowledge Database.

While satellite imagery is widely used in arable crops like wheat, barley, rice… already highly digitized sectors — horticulture remains largely undigitized. The pandemic highlighted this vulnerability; while staple crops remained stable, fruit production was threatened due to reliance on expensive, manual labor. Horticulture is in urgent need of digital solutions that offer a holistic, data-driven approach to guide the industry toward beyond sustainable i.e. regenerative practices.

Combining the extensive knowledge of Fauna Smart Technologies in horticulture, crop protection, and food security together with satellite earth observation, geoinformation, and platform development, we are able to deliver tailored information to farmers to make the right decisions at the right time.
