Aurea Imaging, experts in data collection and analysis for agriculture, was contacted at the time by a fruit grower who wanted to measure the growth of his plots with drone images. An excellent idea, since it is common in fruit growing that the crop yield varies per hectare. In the meantime, Aurea has become a permanent partner for the fruit sector, helping growers to increase their yield per plot and to spread it more evenly.
Some fruit trees grow faster or slower than others, and let that be the challenge. But with Aurea's drone images at tree level, you can efficiently study the differences over your acreage. Want to take effective action? Then you can have blossom and vigor maps made of your plots.
Based on these maps, you can slow down trees that grow fast and give nutrients to trees that grow slowly.
To serve each fruit grower in the best possible way, Aurea Imaging works closely with Agromanager: the online registration system for and by fruit growers. Thanks to our GPS module, the images and analyzed values were transformed into digital maps, which the grower could use to navigate his plot to take care of it tree by tree.
It goes like this: the maps of your plots provided by Aurea are imported directly into Agromanager. You then assign a specific value to each individual tree via the GPS module, which can range from 0 to 100, so to speak. With these values, you indicate exactly which trees you want to treat and with which product.

"The grower who buys a blossom card from us is not concerned with data but with improving his crop."
So when a new grower knocks on Aurea's door, the first question asked is whether he/she is already using Agromanager. If so, Aurea's specialists can take the files of the plots directly from Agromanager and put the drone images including values on this. And so Agromanager can in turn create maps with this!
Have all trees or blossoms been treated according to the rules of the art? Then, finally, everything will show up neatly in your grower's Agromanager account, allowing you to later view a detailed overview of how your plots are doing and what actions you have taken at a glance.
Did you know that vigor or blossom maps can give you a lot more yield per acre, depending on your plot?
So as a grower, do you want to optimize your crop and achieve uniform growth on your plots, for a higher yield per plot? Without having to know complicated software to do so? Then the partnership between Aurea and Agromanager may be the missing piece of the puzzle for you.
From our background in fruit growing, we strive to fully support growers in optimizing their crops. Delivering the vigor or blossom chart to you as a grower? That's where it only begins for us! So don't hesitate to contact us: we would be happy to help you personally and tell you more about the possibilities. Welcome!
