See How Bluewhite's World Ag Expo Top 10 New Product Winner "Pathfinder" Turns Your Tractor Into a Robot

Pathfinder Technology

Pathfinder was developed by Bluewhite, to be a cost effective, flexible, and safe solution for permanent crop growers. The platform can transform any brand of existing orchard or vineyard tractor into a fully autonomous fleet, capable of executing multiple tasks, such as spraying, applying herbicide, discing, mowing, or harvesting with high precision and operating efficiency. By retrofitting a growers existing fleet, Bluewhite has not only been able to help the grower maximize their existing assets, and lessen their environmental footprint by providing more precise technology, but they have ultimately been able to increase the grower’s bottom line.

The platform is unique and is currently the only commercialized offering on the market that allows growers the flexibility to update and use their existing fleet with the capability of autonomy. Pathfinder uses the unique fusion of multiple sensors, LIDAR, cameras, and GNSS, enabling safe navigation in every crop and application without the reliance on GPS/RTK or cellular connection, which is not available in all operating conditions.

Video: Running a Farm Store + Starting No-Till Gardens w/Blue Goose Farm

We cover: today we are chatting with Keenan McVey of Blue Goose Farm in Ontario Canada. Keenan, along with his wife Ashley, run this small farm and along with it a really interesting, in-town Farm Store that is a little different from what you might think of as a farm store and has proved to be an invaluable marketing option for them. Keenan’s roots are in the culinary world, and the farm was also started with another chef from the area some of you may know, named Matty Matheson (of the excellent show The Bear). Keenan tells us that story as well as helps detail the technical stuff about how the gardens were created and how they are maintained.
