"Manual thinning can be quickly monitored by Pixofarm to achieve the ideal number of fruit per tree. This allows me to optimize the quantity and quality in my orchard. I have also gained a better overview of my orchard by using Pixofarm."
Stefan Gögele is a passionate apple grower from South Tyrol, Italy. With the services of Pixofarm, he has gained a better overview of the current state of his apples in the orchard. He uses the counting service to monitor and control his manual thinning mid-season. He can easily count the apples in his orchard and determine whether enough apples have been removed after thinning. This eliminates the need for time-consuming manual counting of apples per tree.

What our customers say
"I think if you don’t have Pixofarm you are behind, because it will save you a lot of time and effort compared to traditional methods."
Rowayne Syster, Manager of Verlorenvlei in South Africa, was looking for a solution to speed up the counting of his 34 hectares, as manual counting by his staff takes up too much time that could be better used in other areas. With pixofarm, the corresponding workload could be drastically minimised.

What our customers say
"It was fast and easy to take measurements with both, the counting and the sizing module (Using thebluetooth caliper)"
George Foukalas, a farmer from Agia Larisas, Greece, used Pixofarm in2 hectares of apples, in particular for the variety Golden. At the end of the season(harvest period) results for the quality (size measurements) and quantity (tones/ hectares) were very close to what the pixofarm app had expected.

They managed to use pixofarm's counting and sizing modules last season in their orchards. It was fast and easy to take measurements with both, the counting and the sizing module (Using thebluetooth caliper). Afterwards, they realized that with pixofarm a farmer can have a better image of his field and it helps him to make some interference so as to improve the quality of the fruits.
