Nature Fresh Farms, one of the largest greenhouse growers in North America, has launched a new trial partnership with Koidra, active in AI-based automation for controlled environment agriculture. This collaboration aims to optimize greenhouse operations and enhance productivity through advanced technological integration.
Nature Fresh Farms has always been at the forefront of adopting agricultural practices to ensure the highest quality produce and sustainable farming methods. The partnership with Koidra will leverage AI technology to streamline greenhouse operations, reduce energy costs, and maximize crop yields.
Koidra's AI-powered solutions, DataPilot and KoPilot, offer a comprehensive approach to greenhouse management. These systems integrate data from various sensors and hardware, providing real-time insights and autonomous control of climate, lighting and irrigation systems to maintain optimal growing conditions within the greenhouse.
The trial will focus on several key objectives. It starts with enhanced efficiency by utilizing Koidra's AI algorithms to optimize energy and resource usage for heating, lighting, and irrigation. Then there's labor optimization by reducing the burden on skilled labor by automating routine tasks and environmental adjustments. Finally, increasing yields through maximizing crop production potential by maintaining consistent and optimal growing conditions.
Nature Fresh Farms and Koidra will monitor and analyze the trial's outcomes, aiming to showcase improvements in productivity, energy savings, and overall operational efficiency.
