Digitizing root analysis at scale to enable Climate Smart Agriculture.
Digitizing root analysis at scale to enable Climate Smart Agriculture.
ROOTS ARE THE GATEKEEPERS OF DOING MORE WITH LESS.
Agriculture innovation has always centered on the core principle of doing more
with less—being able to satisfy the increasing food demand using less land, water, and
nutrients.
Today, there is also a growing focus on reducing the agricultural impact of greenhouse gases
like
nitrous oxide (N2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2).
Plant phenotyping has led to dramatic agricultural advancements in productivity,
resilience, and sustainability. But it’s been focused on above-ground characteristics.
Below ground has been a “black box”—until now.
Hi Fidelity Technologies has unlocked that black box by bringing digital measurement and analytics to root systems, providing insight into complex genetics, inputs, and environments.
Our RootTracker™ technology digitizes roots to scale in-field and greenhouse root growth analysis to guide the objectives of Climate Smart Agriculture.
MODERN AGRICULTURE MUST BE CLIMATE SMART.
The demand for food, fiber, and fuel is growing across the globe, even as the opportunities
for agriculture expansion diminish and climate concerns increase.
Along with industries in every economic vertical addressing greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation,
agriculture must also be intentional in its efforts to confront these principal issues.
Climate Smart Agriculture is focused on
increasing productivity, creating more resilient
crops,
and reducing greenhouse gas. Optimizing chemical products and genetics for root growth is the
key
to directly safeguarding against climate volatility—the largest impact on agriculture yield.
GETTING TO THE ROOT OF NEXT-GEN AGRICULTURE.
RootTracker™ is our patented hardware and digital platform providing real-time data
and advanced analytics to enable Ag innovation. Using touch capacitance—like a smartphone
touchscreen—the RootTracker collects data every five minutes, allowing data scientists to
determine key parameters of growth and performance.
- Captures root number and depth to inform angle and biomass.
- Shows rate of change for data-informed decisions.
- Identifies plant responsiveness to stimulus and relationship between plant health and root performance.
