Fruitminder is a software agri-business that allows orchardists to precisely manage each tree. Sebastian Chapman is founder and CEO. He tells Kathryn the app enables users to create GPS-mapped digital twins of their orchards.
The technology works in a similar way to smart ear tags used on cattle, and gives business owners all the data they need about their trees - such as growing conditions, treatments, sprays and fertilisers.
Sebastian Chapman has been a dairy and crop farmer, and says rather than inspecting every tree manually - Fruitminder takes the guess work out of it. He'll be speaking at E Tipu: The Boma Agri Summit in Manawatu in June.
