Real World Use Cases
Redbud, a revolutionary horticulture software, was conceived by growers unafraid to employ innovative solutions to reduce costs and administrative overhead. Our horticultural management software shoulders the hard work so growers can concentrate solely on yielding high-quality produce.
Space Planning
With the rapid growth of technology in agriculture, Redbud enables Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) companies to optimize their space utilization. Redbud allows for a quick overview of the stages of your Reservations, current Scheduling, and occupancy of your zones, allowing for better space usage, planning, and business operations.
Experience rapid growth through the Use of Every Square Inch
Redbud’s tools empower growers to manage their harvests, plan yields better, and recommend the right planting schedules, fertilizer types, and more.
Monitor All Inputs and Environment
Redbud’s horticulture software allows you to monitor your vertical space, usage of natural and artificial light, water, and temperature. Proper management of vertical growing space can significantly reduce greenhouse pollution, carbon footprint, and overhead compared to traditional agriculture allowing for more sustainable business processes.
Coordinate Work Between Teams
When it comes to pest scouting and management, the pest control inventory data collected using RedBud can be used to determine if pest control measures are required, helping you select the right pesticide and timeframe for maximum effect. These steps are crucial in pest management and allow managers to quantify pest pressure and the potential for crop damage.
