CEAd Insights from GreenTech Amsterdam 2024: Driving Innovation in Sustainable Agriculture
CEAd is the leading provider of consulting and design services to the Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) industry. GreenTech Amsterdam, the premier event in the horticulture industry, was held on June 11-13th, 2024, at the RAI Amsterdam. CEAd exhibited at the show which features emerging trends and innovations shaping sustainable agriculture.
Sustainable Innovations
GreenTech Amsterdam serves as a pivotal gathering point to explore the latest & greatest sustainable innovations in horticulture. Several technologies and solutions aimed at revolutionizing agricultural practices worldwide were featured at this year’s show, including CEAd’s APIS Digital Hub.
A highlight of GreenTech is the Innovation & Concept Awards, which recognize innovations that promise to reshape the future of agriculture. CEAd entered APIS Digital Hub in this year’s competition. APIS Digital Hub integrates multiple inputs from various greenhouse technologies, enhancing crop steering and predictive yield. This powerful tool allows owners and investors to optimize production, quality, and overall sustainability of their facilities.
Joel Fuzat, SVP Innovation at CEAd, commented, “Each year that we attend GreenTech, we continue to see an increased offering of digital services focused on crop-level intelligence and AI for CEA producers. This indicates a need that producers have and further validates the APIS Digital Hub—Industrial Greenhouse Management (IGM) software. APIS IGM software focuses on both facility and business level intelligence to provide operators a different level of accountability while achieving autonomous production.”
