A Global Problem
Nearly 50 Million farmers’ livelihoods are affected by the Red Palm Weevil – Food & Agricultural Organization of the UN.
Precision Agriculture Through Acoustics
By determining the precise location and the early infestation of the Red Palm Weevil in palm trees, We enable the targeted use of chemicals and pesticides.
TECHNOLOGY
Palmear® is a real-time acoustic sensor and mobile app
Palmear is fundamentally changing the early detection of pests using acoustics.
Our device together with the mobile app is a powerful and easy to use tool that enables farmers to quickly detect the early onset of the Red Palm Weevil by listening inside a tree.
We help growers assess and optimize their pest response mechanisms by enabling the treatment of the precise tree before serious damage is inflicted.
Non-invasive
Does not damage the stem
Portable & easy to use
Does not require an expert to use
Low cost
Affordable subscription model
Time efficient
Detects the RPW in seconds
PLATFORM
Smart Palm Farming
Our platform is a real-time management tool that tracks RPW infestations at a farm and country level, allowing farmers and various stake holders to make informed data-driven decisions.
We analyze satellite imagery and train algorithms to provide palm tree health analytics to plantations around the world.
We bring the power of smart-farming to the palm industry
