Opti-Harvest, Inc.

Harvest time again! Here we are reaping the rewards of an Opti-Panel? installation on V-trellised Citrus mandarin with a well-known grower in California’s Central Valley. One installation we have followed since planting is now at its’ 4th harvest. Opti-Panels have accelerated growth and carrying capacity. The cumulative amount of extra income for the grower generated over the first four harvests so far stands at $22,500 per acre. At present the trees are still only 60% of their mature size. Meanwhile, on another block, last February the Opti-Panel? system was introduced to fully mature trees. After one year the results are in: 28% extra fruit, or approximately an extra $19,000 per acre for the grower. Amazing results! If you’d like a deeper dive into the results, please contact us for the full breakdown. #aginnovation #betterlightmakesbetterfruit #optipanels

This vineyard, located in Napa County, CA, is being devastated by grapevine red blotch disease. The grower is constantly “roguing and replacing” infected vines – resulting in significant losses in net return to the grower. He is now using Opti-Gro? chambers to accelerate growth of the replacement vines and get them into full production a year sooner. In addition, he anticipates the Opti-Gro? chambers will physically prevent the vector – three-cornered alfalfa – from feeding on the young vines and spreading the disease in the vineyard. The chambers will also improve overall vigor of the vines, enhance development of the root system, and self-train the growing vines onto the trellis wire – significantly reducing labor costs. This is what 21st Century Agriculture looks like. #californiawine #agtech #sustainableag #profitablefarming #vinereplants #agriculture #growthhashtag#betterlightmakesbetterfruit#redblotch

Our Opti-Panel? system has repeatedly proven through 3rd party scientific studies to increase yield, improve fruit quality and maximize net return from trellised citrus. Opti-Panel? is a revolutionary light, canopy, and fruit management system for trellised citrus: enhancing photosynthetic capacity, increasing production (number and size of fruit), and fruit quality. Picture 1: Opti-Panels on trellised Shiranui / Sumo Citrus. Picture 2: Using Opti-Panels, a grower of trellised ‘Shiranui’ in Lindsay (California) increased this year’s harvestable yield by 44% and the number of fruit of all size categories by 35-59%. This translated to $8,478 additional income per acre to the grower. Picture 3: For a 1-acre installation in a newly planted orchard, the ROI from increased harvestable yield builds from $2,674 - $9,246 during the usable life of the Opti-Panel system.
