This innovation enables real-time, non-destructive iron tracking within plant tissues across different plant species, optimising plant nutrient management, reducing fertiliser waste, and improving crop health
Building the Farm of Tomorrow: How Emerging Technologies Are Shaping the Future of Agriculture
Innovative solutions are urgently required to sustain and enhance global food production. At iyris, we are committed to developing tools empowering farmers to grow more sustainably - and at less cost.
How Are Gain and Image Quality Related?
Gain refers to the amplification of the signal from the image sensor to ensure that the imaging process meets defined purposes. However, trade-offs may occur in some cases. Learn about the types of gain, their differences, and their relationship with image quality.
Transforming crop health and sustainability with laser-powered technology
The foliar application of agrochemicals is one of the foundations of modern farming, essential for crop health and maximizing yields. However, this method's efficiency is often compromised by an inherent barrier posed by the leaf itself.
Why Stem Width Matters
As greenhouse operations scale, traditional manual measurement methods are becoming insufficient, leading to unreliable data that may miss subtle changes in crop performance.

GrowSpan's Venlo greenhouse project represents years of research and development, as well as significant investments made in manufacturing facilities and infrastructure.
Soil Testing: An Untapped Revenue Driver for Agricultural Retailers
From increasing crop yields to reducing input waste, soil testing delivers measurable results that farmers value. For retailers, it's more than just a service; it's a strategic gateway to deeper customer relationships, increased input sales, and differentiation.
Harnessing Climate-Resilient Greenhouses: The Future of Sustainable Agriculture
By 2050, the global population is expected to surpass 9 billion, requiring a 60% increase in food production-a challenge that current agricultural methods cannot meet without fundamental change.
Practical Steps for Measuring and Reducing Your Business' Carbon Footprint
In this guide, we walk you through some basic concepts and provide a step-by-step guide for how best to decarbonize your operations quickly and on a tight budget.
Understanding The Hidden Costs of the Olive Fruit Fly in Commercial Groves
Beyond the economic toll, the olive fruit fly poses a quality issue. Infested olives can increase acidity levels in olive oil, degrading its flavor and market value. For table olives, visible damage renders the fruit unfit for sale, further compounding growers' losses.
Top tips for avoiding food contamination
Cross contamination can occur at any stage of the food production chain, so food processing facilities have processes and procedures in place to remove any risk of product mishandling.
Plant Health Monitoring: The 5 Most Important Factors to Check
As a hydroponic grower, plant health monitoring is a crucial aspect of ensuring your plants thrive and produce high yields. In this blog, we'll discuss the key factors to monitor and how to address common plant deficiencies.
Maximizing Commercial Greenhouse Yields Through CO2-Sensing IoT Systems
Localized CO2 monitors, placed in close proximity to the plants themselves would help combat microclimates forming within the growing areas, which are liable to change as plants grow and mature.
10 Essential Tips for Choosing the Best Lighting Fixtures for Your Grow Operation
