New Delhi-based tech startup InfyU Labs has begun collaborating with Jammu and Kashmir Horticulture Planning and Marketing Department (JKHPMD) to analyze fruits and vegetables using its digital scan “Infizer”.
Vishal Chauhan, head of sales at InfyU labs: “To begin with, InfyU is analyzing cherry’s internal value, its quality, pH value and predict its shelf life. We have expanded our reach in this collaboration to mandis in Srinagar and Jammu regions.”
Infizer is a mouse-like device that can help analyze the quality of fruits or vegetables, including their shelf-life, without cutting them. The “lab in a pocket” device is being used to analyze the quality of various fruits and vegetables.
“Our outreach to mandis is to provide market linkage to growers and farmer producer organisations (FPOs). They will benefit directly as their returns will improve when buyers are made aware of its special features,” Chauhan said.
