Precision Pollination Contributes 28% Increase of Almond Yield
For its fifth consecutive year, Edete’s precision pollination service has demonstrated a significant contribution to securing and increasing agricultural yields. On February 2022, Edete completed an additional pollination trial at a commercial orchard. The trial...
Fully Autonomous Artificial Pollination is Feasible!
Edete Precision Technologies for Agriculture – a provider of end-to-end artificial pollination as a service – and Blue White Robotics have run a joint pilot to demonstrate the feasibility of fully autonomous mechanized pollination in orchards. Edete,...
Planning for the Future
Proud to present Edete’s newly planted fully designated almond pollen block. Small pollen blocks allow growers to plant desired single variety or female-only orchards, yet enjoy the benefits of cross-pollination qualitative and quantitative yields based on Edete’s...
