Published purpose
This project aims to help the Canadians and the apple industry cope with today's major labor and pesticide challenges. By using exclusion netting, narrow fruiting walls and mechanized operations, it will be possible to implement an integrated system of precision farming that will facilitate the production of high quality fruits, help move closer towards a pesticide-free approach and protect crops from climactic extremes.
