🚀 Transforming Fresh Produce Inspection: From Manual Destruction to Data-Driven Insights 🍎 Introducing Our Latest Blog: Insights & Data Analysis vs. Manual Destruction Have you ever picked up an apple and checked it for bruising, firmness, and shine before deciding to take it home? As a consumer, this simple act kickstarts a chain of inspection processes that impact the entire fresh produce supply chain. 🔍 The Reality of Manual Inspection: At the farm’s first stop, 2-5% of apples are removed for inspection. Experienced inspectors manually examine, grade, and often destroy samples to check for quality. The process is slow, costing over $50 per ton and wasting significant amounts of produce. Expensive lab equipment and manual data entry add to inefficiencies. 💡 The New Approach with Neolithics: Automated processes have long been a part of the industry. However, recent advancements in AI, machine learning, and optical technology now make it possible to inspect fresh produce both internally and externally without any destruction. Why Neolithics' Fresh Produce Inspection Platform Stands Out: Non-Destructive Analysis: Inspect produce from skin to core using AI and next-gen software. Comprehensive Data: Provides insights into Brix, acidity, dry matter, bruising, decay, and more. Enhanced Supply Chain: Wholesalers, distributors, ripeners, packers, and retailers gain a competitive edge. Improved Quality and Speed: Ensures safer, higher-quality produce that reaches the market fresher and faster. Cost Efficiency: Reduces OPEX, maximizes ROI, and improves margins. Join us in exploring how Neolithics' technology is revolutionizing fresh produce inspection, making it more efficient, accurate, and economically viable. 🚀 Dive into our blog to learn more. #FreshProduce #AI #DataAnalysis #FoodTech #Innovation #Neolithics #SupplyChain #Agriculture #QualityControl

Are you tired of seeing perfectly good produce go to waste during quality control inspections? You're not alone. The food system is broken. Just in avocado distribution, a staggering 12% of products are lost. Sample inspections currently account for 2.5% of production costs, and retail still rejects 10% of its supply. That's why fresh produce distributors and warehouses, including avocado suppliers, are turning to #Neolithics to help them achieve their ambitious goals. We offer non-destructive, accurate inspections that align with both operational and financial considerations. Imagine a uniform measure of quality — a 'currency' — that enables all stages in the supply chain to share relevant data on fruits and vegetables seamlessly. Join the movement towards a more efficient and waste-free future with Neolithics! #FoodIndustry #ProduceInspection #ReduceWaste #SustainableAgriculture PeakBridge Startup Nation Central

Why Dry Matter Matters? 🥑 Did you know an avocado's delicious taste and creamy texture come from its oil content? Without enough oil, avocados fall short on flavor, consistency, color, and overall quality. Avocados are climacteric fruits—they ripen after harvest. To achieve the perfect ripeness, they must be picked at the right stage of maturity. While appearance, color, and ripeness can help, these factors are often subjective and require significant experience. Dry matter includes all the solids in the fruit minus the water—carbohydrates, vitamins, proteins, fats, fibers, and sugars. It’s a precise and reliable way to measure maturity. The higher the dry matter, the better the flavor and overall quality of the avocado. Oil Content Correlation An increase in dry matter correlates with higher oil content, ensuring your avocados taste their best. Tracking dry matter provides an accurate indicator of maturity, ensuring the final product meets consumer quality preferences.
