Data Science for Growers

Fermata develops computer vision solutions for both
controlled environment agriculture and outdoor.

Automatically Detect Pests

Our Croptimus™ platform watches your crop 24/7, detecting a wide range of pesky critters.

Automatically Detect Disease

From powdery mildew to bud rot, mosaic and more, Croptimus™ finds them all... automatically!

Reduction in Crop Loss

Don't let a good plant go to waste! Increase your yield with Croptimus™ automated scouting.

Reduction in Scouting Time

Why waste your time finding problems when you can instead be solving them?

Meet Croptimus™

Wasting precious time on scouting? Croptimus™ stands watch over your crop, so you don't have to. Using advanced machine learning, our computer vision system finds pests and disease well in advance of human scouts — saving growers both time and money.

Get the Real Picture

While Croptimus does indeed include 2D mapping of pest and disease incidents within your facility, it's often far easier to just take a look at the canopy yourself. Croptimus makes grower's lives easier by overlaying incident icons right on top of your crop. Simply click and drag to see a 360º view of your crop and click on the icons to drill down to see all the details — how cool is that?!

Find Persistent Problems

With Croptimus heat maps, you're never left wondering where the source of the problems lie. Track the spread of pests or disease over time and even discover where there may be problems with your growing area itself.

Croptimus™ Has Your Back.

For just pennies per square foot, Croptimus™ automatically scouts for Aphids, Spider Mites, Thrips, Powdery Mildew, Bud Rot (Botrytis), Mosaic, nutrient issues, general plant health, and both mechanical and pest damage — with more pest and disease categories being added to the list all the time.

The benefit of using AI to detect these issues over human scouts is that it never gets tired, and actually improves over time instead of delivering poorer results due to fatigue. Similar to factories implementing computer vision as the new standard for quality control — saving both time due to increased production line speed, and money in retaining costly human resources — Croptimus™ dramatically reduces both scouting costs and crop losses, increasing the efficiency and profitability of your business.

Early detection of incidents focuses the treatment area, increases our efficiency, and saves money. The system discovered pests and various plant anomalies numerous times before the IPM employee came in for their weekly examination. Fermata is the guardian angel of our farm!

As a venture capital fund, Raw frequently gets pitches to consider from a wide variety of start-ups. Right from the start we knew Fermata’s was different. Offering a solution that both makes growers lives easier, and their companies more profitable, was clearly a win-win proposition. We have just committed to further investment in Fermata, and look forward to a bright future in partnership with them.

Victoria Palatnik

Partner, Raw Ventures

Maintaining crop quality, consistency, and yield is very challenging when you aren’t growing in a controlled environment such as a greenhouse. And as you might imagine, manually scouting 3 acres for signs of pests and disease which affect all three of these factors is a very time-consuming, and error-prone task. That’s why when Fermata approached us with an automated solution to address the problem we were all ears!

While our North Star is to make the lives of crop producers easier and more profitable, it’s also incredibly rewarding for the team at Fermata to know our solution directly reduces our clients' carbon footprint. By automating early detection of issues such as pest & disease, clients use less chemicals, and less labour to treat problems, as issues are dealt with on a much smaller scale than before Croptimus is installed within a facility. In addition, yields and crop quality increases in a more uniform manner, so packaging and transportation resources can be streamlined to encompass this more uniform production.”
