Example #1

Ordering the right packaging materials, in the right amounts

When buying packaging materials, you want to know 2 things:

fruit size distribution

number of fruits / volumes

Fruit packers who use pixofarm to collect these data themselves – or have their growers/suppliers collect them – are able to dramatically increase the precision of their orders. This is saving them costs by reducing waste & required storage space.

Increased precision in workforce planning

Growers use Pixofarm to generate reliable yield estimates based on which they plan their staff needs for picking, transporting, orchard upkeep & processing.
