Smart internal pest detection for tropical coconut plantations
The Coconut Palm is a tropical tree grown for food, oil, and fiber. Due to its high economic value, it is frequently targeted by destructive burrowing pests.
These pests tunnel into the trunk or fronds, damaging the tree internally and often transmitting lethal diseases before symptoms become visible.
Using FarmX provides early detection of larvae activity, allowing treatment of infected trees only and eliminating the need for preventative spraying.
