Harvest to Consumer Traceability
Traceability starts in the field or ranch, with tools that records the grower’s harvest. Growers and Processors are keen on quickly moving produce from the field to the processing plant, with 100% traceability! MobileXe’s harvest and scale tools quickly record bin, carton, container or trailer loads. The key is to process a receipt fast. A trailer and cab can pass through a scale in under three minutes. Minimizing wait times, and queues, while maximizing asset utilization.
Grower Portal Data
The Scale House is the chock point for many processors. The scale is critical for capturing weights, grower lots and USDA sample data in order to trace, then protect the supply chain to the consumer. A combination of RFID, Barcode, Vision and Wireless technology records each grower’s load. Growers and Processors have immediate access to each receipt via a customized “Grower Portal”. Growers get feedback fast, in minutes, then receive inspection and yield data after USDA and Samples via emails and the “Grower Portal”.
Produce Traceability Initiative
In summary, the weigh master, receives a load fast which starts the downstream events critical to Product Safety Initiative. In the event of a “Campaign”, our tools provide the traceability back to the ranch or grower. Track it from field to consumer or partners.
