Ag Business & Crop, Located in Ontario. Collecting the right spatial data on the farm is to central to making better crop management decisions. We help clients adopt and use technologies to collect accurate crop & field data, simply and efficiently. We believe in distributing the best technologies like Wintex’s highly accurate soil samplers, senseFly professional UAV/Drones and our newest product line of liquid storage system covers (eg Manure tanks) to help clients that also promote environmental sustainability. Fundamental to our values is providing on-going benefits to our clients through our training programs and technical support specialists.
I'm working with growers of all field sizes and crops to optimize their daily irrigation management. I have been collaborating with Canadian irrigators since 2009 through sales representation at Hortau Inc.
We offer reliable soil moisture sensors, weather stations, and automation services. Our Mobile App makes it easy to consult field data in real-time and to make better decisions. By irrigating at the right time with the right amount, growers can expect yield increase, plant quality and avoid leaching.
Hortau owns proprietary technology based on soil tension. We are developing, manufacturing, and servicing our technology directly to growers. We collaborate with the irrigation industry by being active in research. We have an agronomic R&D department constantly developing and fine-tuning technology and conducting field researches. We also collaborate with external research projects. We constantly improve our technology to be a reference in the Precision Ag Industry.
Eric Lund is president and co-founder of Veris Technologies. For the past 25+ years Eric and his team at Veris have pioneered on-the-go soil sensing, developed advanced soil mapping equipment, and played an important role in establishing the market and proper applications for soil sensing technology worldwide. Veris soil maps are being used to finetune applications of nitrogen, seed, irrigation, soil amendments, and other inputs on crops ranging from peanuts to potatoes, corn to coffee, and from soybeans to sugar cane. In 2005 Veris commercialized the first proximal Vis-NIR spectrophotometer for use in mapping soil carbon, followed two years later with the first Vis-NIR proximal sensing probe for 0-90 cm soil profile carbon measurements.
