High-wire cultivation

The grower plays a crucial role: they have the practical knowledge and own the problem. The grower determines the user requirements for the technology’s development. Whether it involves removing leaves from cucumber plants or harvesting gerberas, it is about the interaction between practice and technology. This interaction will result in a successful solution.

Technology

With our expertise and technology, we have developed an autonomous leaf-cutting robot for cucumber plants in high-wire cultivation. With a few smart adjustments for the crop and a minor modification to the AI algorithm, the robot is also suitable for tomato cultivation.

Product - VDL CropTeQ

At present, the focus is on removing leaves from cucumber plants in high-wire cultivation. It is clear that applying this solution to other high-wire crops, such as tomatoes, will follow.
