    Operational decisioning — pace, bottlenecks, cost-per-unit, and quality timing — updated hour by hour.*

    * Requires FairTrak mobile devices with grower-provided SIM/hotspot for in-field data syncs, plus a subscription to the operational analytics feature.

    What we are

    • Labor-first operational intelligence
    • A decision loop: track → detect → recommend → act → verify
    • Modular — start with harvest tracking, add what you need
    • Connected to precision ag partners when it helps

    What we're not

    • Not a replacement for your ERP, accounting, or irrigation system
    • Not an all-in-one farm management platform
    • Not a data warehouse — we focus on decisions, not dashboards

    The Challenges Keeping Growers Up at Night

    81%

    Washington's minimum wage rose 81% from 2013 to 2025 — while retail fruit and vegetable prices climbed only 23%. Growers absorb the gap. FairPick and FairTrak create the operational baseline so managers and owners can intervene daily — before small inefficiencies become budget killers.

    +46%

    U.S. farm bankruptcies rose to 315 in 2025 — up 46% year over year. We help you surface cost-per-unit and productivity drift early enough to respond.

    FSMA traceability is coming — and buyers are already asking.

    The Food Traceability Rule isn't being enforced until July 20, 2028 — but retailer and packer requirements are moving sooner. Track inventory from field to cooler to truck with barcodes and RFID to reduce disputes today and be ready well before deadlines.

    Up and Running in Days, Not Months

    1

    Deploy

    We set up FairPick scales, sensors, or scanning hardware on your operation. Most growers are live within a single harvest day.

    Collect

    Data flows automatically to your dashboard — harvest weights, labor hours, inventory counts, soil readings, and more.

    Decide

    Act on issues as they emerge: pace vs target, station congestion, block underperformance, and cost-per-unit drift — then reassess within the same shift.

    Operate in real time — not after payroll.

    • Live pace vs target by crew and block (spot misses by 10am, not tomorrow).

    • Bottleneck alerts (stations backing up, slow blocks, travel-time waste).

    • Next-best action recommendations (reassign crews, adjust start times, change pick order).

    Payroll automation is included. The differentiator is the decision loop.

    * Real-time field sync requires FairTrak mobile devices with grower-provided SIM/hotspot for in-field data syncs, plus a subscription to the operational analytics feature.
