Complete Lifecycle Technology
Discover how Chowkidaar's integrated system automates every phase of strawberry farming from planting to harvest.
Precision Planting & Field Preparation
Automate the planting process with intelligent layout planning and robotic precision.
Chart Planting Layout
After plastic mulch is laid out, ScoutBot analyzes field conditions and creates an optimal planting layout maximizing space and growing conditions.
- GPS-mapped field boundaries
- Optimal row spacing calculation
- Individual plant location mapping
Mark & Burn Holes
ScoutBot precisely marks each plant location and uses controlled heating to burn perfect holes in the plastic mulch for planting.
- Precise hole placement
- Consistent hole sizing
- Clean edges for healthy growth
Guide Bare Root Planting
CommandHub guides workers through the planting process, ensuring each bare root strawberry is placed correctly with proper depth and orientation.
- Step-by-step planting guidance
- Optimal depth monitoring
- Plant ID assignment at planting
Intelligent Monitoring & Care
Track every plant individually, detect patterns, and take proactive action to ensure optimal health.
Individual Plant Tracking
Every plant receives a unique identifier based on row and position (e.g., 12A13, 25B290). This allows Chowkidaar to maintain a complete health history for each plant in FarmCloud.
