PerPlant provides an AI‑driven camera sensor that mounts on a tractor and continuously scans crops to deliver real‑time variable‑rate recommendations for spot‑spraying, fertilization, and seeding. By targeting inputs only where needed, the system can cut herbicide use by up to 87 % and increase yields by up to 4 %, while automatically storing field data in the cloud for analysis and compliance reporting.

Problem
Farmers often apply fertilizers, herbicides, and growth regulators uniformly across fields, leading to overuse of chemicals, lower yields, and unnecessary labor for data collection and prescription mapping.
Solution
PerPlant offers an AI‑driven camera sensor that mounts on a tractor and continuously scans crops while the vehicle is in the field. The system analyzes plant health in real time and generates variable‑rate recommendations for spot‑spraying, fertilization, and seeding, applying inputs only where needed. By automating the prescription process, the sensor eliminates the need for manual assignment cards and reduces herbicide use by up to 87 %. Yield can increase by up to 4 % as nutrients and protection are targeted more precisely. All sensor data are stored in the cloud for later analysis, reporting, and compliance documentation.
Target Audience
Primary customers are commercial arable farmers and agronomic service providers seeking to reduce input costs, improve yields, and simplify field data management.
Features
- Compact camera sensor mounted on tractor roof, installable in ~30 minutes, compatible with tractors with or without rear implements
- Real‑time AI image analysis that identifies crop nutrient and pest stress to generate spot‑spray and variable‑rate maps on the go
- Automatic integration with existing spraying equipment to deliver precise input only to targeted zones
- Cloud‑based data storage providing field‑level analytics, historical comparison, and exportable reports for regulatory compliance
- Compatibility with multiple crops and regions, currently deployed across Denmark and several European countries
- No requirement for pre‑prepared assignment cards for fertilizers, fungicides, herbicides, or growth regulators
