Picker Productivity

The Harvest Labour Crisis

Growers worldwide are losing money, fruit, and sleep over a problem that's getting worse every season.

20%

of Produce Never Gets Harvested

NRDC report: 20% of US produce is unharvested. Globally, millions of tonnes of fruit rot in the field due to labour shortages.

$25M+

Lost to Unpicked Fruit Each Season

Based on ABARES crop loss data and Hort Innovation rubus production values — raspberries and blackberries alone lose over $25 million worth of fruit each season to labour shortages.

Productivity Growth in Decades

While every other industry has automated, berry picking productivity hasn't improved. Same baskets. Same walking. Same waste.

The Solution

Meet the Forager
Harvesting Aid

An autonomous platform that follows your pickers through crop rows, carrying punnets and cold storage directly for them. Pickers pick straight into punnets on the platform — no buckets, no sorting, no double handling.

  • Autonomous platform follows your pickers through crop rows
  • Pickers fill punnets directly on the platform — no buckets, no sorting
  • Eliminates the time-consuming task of carefully transferring berries from buckets into punnets
  • In-field refrigeration preserves quality immediately
  • Tow hitch for slasher and prime mover off-season use

How It Works

Three steps. Zero complexity.

1
Forager platform autonomously navigating through raspberry rows

The Platform Follows Pickers

The platform follows your pickers autonomously through crop rows — AI-powered cameras track picker positions while GPS keeps it on course. No driver. No training needed.

2
Pickers filling punnets directly on the Forager platform

Pickers Fill Punnets Directly

Your pickers fill punnets right on the platform as it moves alongside them. No carrying buckets, no walking to sorting stations, no time spent sorting. Delicate fruit goes straight into the punnet — zero double handling.

3
Punnets going straight into on-board refrigeration

Straight to Cold Storage

Punnets go straight into on-board refrigeration — getting fruit out of the heat and humidity immediately. Less waste, fresher produce, longer shelf life.
