Speaking on this partnership, AgNext’s CEO & Founder, Taranjeet Singh Bhamra said, “It is an honour to work with NAFED on India’s first AI-based initiative to bring complete quality and traceability management solutions for Arunachal’s renowned kiwi trade. Till date, over 6000 kgs of kiwi has been assessed and moved through our ‘Qualix’ platform, with proven benefits for the farmers, NAFED and the end-consumers. The impact of facilitating quality-based and traceability-enabled trade for kiwi .. has been assessed and moved through our ‘Qualix’ platform, with proven benefits for the farmers, NAFED and the end-consumers. The impact of facilitating quality-based and traceability-enabled trade for kiwis will not only improve domestic demand, but also help in boosting export potential of the fruit.”
Subrat Panda, Chief Technology Officer, AgNext explained the various intersections where technological deployment helped to bring about the traceability solution to the end-consumer, “NAFED connected us with the FPOs in Ziro, Arunachal Pradesh and we deployed our quality assessment solution right at the procurement centre to measure the total soluble sugar (TSS), which is the key parameter to ascertain the ripeness of Kiwi. During the packaging process for retail distribution, each box of kiwis was labeled with a QR code through which one can access the complete inspection report along with key traceability and quality parameters. The entire process is automated and led by integrated AI-based system which significantly reduces the TAT for quality testing, logistics and marketing of the fruit.”
