PHILADELPHIA, July 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- AgroFresh
Solutions, Inc. ("AgroFresh") (Nasdaq: AGFS), a global leader in
produce freshness solutions, today announced the launch of
FreshCloud™ Harvest View, an advanced digital service that equips
customers with on-time information to optimize harvest management
and achieve enhanced fruit quality and yield.
FreshCloud Harvest View is an easy-to-use digital service that
complements AgroFresh's proprietary Harvista™ 1.3 SC technology, a
near-harvest solution that provides flexibility to extend the
harvest window, improve fruit quality and optimize labor
management at harvest. FreshCloud Harvest View captures, organizes
and presents fast and easy-to-access data insights on starch
hydrolysis progression. Growers can make timely decisions on when
to apply Harvista, which is key to maximize quality and yields.
This can translate into higher profit potential.
"For decades, we've prioritized innovation and technology to
help growers maintain and extend produce freshness and quality.
We're excited to combine our deep agricultural expertise with
sophisticated, digital technology services for the industry," said
AgroFresh CEO, Jordi Ferre.
"FreshCloud Harvest View is another step towards empowering our
customers with fast, accurate and reliable data to make timely
decisions to increase yield and quality, and ultimately
maximize profit potential and reduce waste."
FreshCloud Harvest View offers growers an even more
comprehensive fruit maturity assessment and Harvista application
timing system. For the 2020 season, AgroFresh-dedicated teams will
guide customers on leveraging this new service, which will be
accessible from their preferred mobile device or computer.
"In order for our customers to deliver the best tasting and
freshest fruit, they need new tools to measure and manage quality
parameters starting in the orchard. That's why we have developed
FreshCloud Harvest View and are integrating our science-backed
agricultural expertise with machine learning," said AgroFresh's
Global Head of FreshCloud Infrastructure and Analytics,
Kim Bui. "FreshCloud Harvest View
equips our customers with data-driven insights that unlock a deeper
understanding of fruit maturity and storage potential during
harvest, which ultimately leads to more precise and sophisticated
decision-making."
As demonstrated with growers in multiple countries for many
years, AgroFresh's Harvista solution provides greater flexibility
for harvest management, particularly workforce scheduling and labor
management, which are increasingly growing concerns for the 2020
harvest season.
AgroFresh continues to bring an expanded portfolio of new
technology solutions to help growers, especially in these
challenging times. For more information, visit the AgroFresh
