Descripción del proyecto
Solución de detección para mitigar el agrietamiento de la fruta
El agrietamiento de la fruta es uno de los principales trastornos fisiológicos que limitan su calidad y rendimiento. Se trata de un trastorno de la piel o cáscara que se produce principalmente durante la fase previa a la cosecha debido a las condiciones climáticas y ambientales y a una mala gestión de los vergeles. El equipo del proyecto CrackSense, financiado con fondos europeos, desarrollará y ampliará tecnologías de detección que proporcionen datos de sensores en tiempo real mediante actividades piloto relacionadas con el problema del agrietamiento de la fruta en cítricos, granadas, uvas de mesa y cerezas dulces. La solución integrada CrackSense mejorará los datos recopilados por los sensores en conjuntos de datos de toda la Unión Europea, incluidos los datos de observación de la Tierra y otros conjuntos de datos relativos a las condiciones ambientales y utilizados para supervisar la producción agrícola. La solución mitigará los efectos del agrietamiento, con lo que reducirá a la mitad las pérdidas en el rendimiento debidas a este fenómeno, lo cual a su vez permitirá a los agricultores llevar a cabo una gestión eficaz y acciones sostenibles.
Objetivo
Fruit cracking is a peel disorder, limiting fruit quality and yield. The phenomenon occurs mainly in the pre-harvest stage and affects many types of fruit. External conditions like climatic and environmental conditions, and orchard management play important roles in increasing the incidence of the phenomenon, this CrackSense will condict reasers in IL, FR, DE, LT, EL. CrackSense aims to address the problem of fruit cracking in citrus, pomegranate, table grapes and sweet cherries by developing and upscaling sensing technologies that will provide real-time sensor data through piloting activities. The sensor data collected will be upscaled into EU-wide data sets which will encompass Earth Observation Data (provided by Copernicus, e.g. Sentinel) and other data sets reflecting on environmental conditions. This data will be used to monitor agricultural production of the studied crops and enable farmers and growers’ efficient management of their resources and sustainability of their actions. By improving the agricultural production of these crops, CrackSense will as well help in creating a model for other agricultural crops. Furthermore, CrackSense will address the critical need for efficient and real-time monitoring of agri-environmental conditions because these conditions have a great influence on agricultural production. By deploying sensing technologies, CrackSense will enable high throughput assessment of cracking incidence risk at fruit, tree, field, and regional scale to mitigate the negative effects of the cracking phenomenon. By reducing 1/2 of the yield losses due to cracking, the use of the Integrated CrackSense Solution will result in 50% higher financial gain for farmers and growers. Integrated CrackSense Solution will enable farmers and growers to optimise their cost efficiency and generate pathways for more income. Fostering complementarities between partners will enable us to fulfil our goals to bring state-of-the-art CrackSense Solution to end users.
