Austchilli is the first farm in Bundaberg to undergo a rollout of RapidAIM’s fruit fly pest detection technology.
Visiting the region recently to set up the grid, RapidAIM CEO and co-founder Dr Nancy Schellhorn said the rollout was part of the Hinkler AgTech Initiative led by CQUniversity, enabling growers to test and trial agtech.
She said a grid of 30 was being trialled at the local chilli farm.
“We had great conversations this morning as part of the Hinkler Innovation Series lectures about rolling a grid out across Bundaberg – something that we’ve done in other regions,” she said.
