RFID in the agriculture and horticulture sector: faster logistics, accurate stock management and optimal traceability

Our solutions

Optimisation of logistics processes

In the agriculture and horticulture sector, RFID is already successfully applied by various actors in order to increase the efficiency in logistics processes. The grower uses it to trace his trays, the auction applies it throughout internal logistics processes and at the wholesaler and exporter, incoming and outgoing trolleys are automatically detected and identified using RFID technology.

Tracking and tracing is also applied for harvesting and preservation; in this way, containers with freshly harvested vegetables or pallets with fruit are closely located and tracked.

Food safety

With RFID temperature sensors, the temperature of refrigerated products or frozen products can be registered and monitored during transport; alarms are generated when the temperature is rising and the historical data give a clear picture – place and time – about where something went wrong.

Aucxis already implemented numerous RFID solutions in the sector, for example:

  • Identification, tracking and tracing and management of logistic carriers, both large and small: trays, flower pots, boxes, roll containers, …
  • Tracing of punnets and trays
  • Optimisation of the internal auction logistics
  • Tracking and tracing of trolleys
  • Automatic control of chain conveyors or other logistic transport systems
  • Automation of the clock supply
  • Automatic registration of trucks and load, inbound and outbound
  • Identification and localisation of boxes in the refrigerated storage
  • Automatic registration of import, export and movements of pallet boxes in ULO cold stores
  • Temperature registration and monitoring

Watch below the case video of the tracking solution with vision and RFID at the auction of Coöperatie Hoogstraten.

“By linking the QR codes to an RFID tag, a unique link is established between the consumer and the producer who filled the punnets with Hoogstraten® strawberries.”
