Autonomous growing:
“I worked in the music industry in the early 2000’s when free downloads were creating chaos. Companies who embraced that change were able to adapt and grow. Needless to say I want to adapt and thrive my family business. That’s why I started with autonomous growing.”

Blog | Energy crisis: anticipating with algorithms
Many companies have been hit hard by the soaring energy prices caused by the war in Ukraine and the energy transition. This requires continuous consideration of crop data, weather data and costs. Rudolf de Vetten describes in his blog how algorithms are able to make these trade-offs continuously and perform the right actions 24/7. This way growers can achieve optimal control of the climate much more precisely per department, resulting in significantly less energy waste.
