Every engagement has a clear scope, a fixed price, and measurable goals agreed up front.
Our services
Team Training & Workshops
For harvest crews, QA teams, operations staff, and grower groups. Practical workshops on harvest maturity and timing, gentle handling, rapid cooling, temperature management, packaging, and quality assessment, tailored to your crop and team. On-site or virtual.
Starting at $1,500 per half day.
Packaging & Cold-Chain Review
For shippers, packaging suppliers, and retailers. I assess package design for airflow, cooling, drainage, and protection; evaluate modified-atmosphere and active packaging; and review temperature management from packhouse to shelf. I am the inventor of a patented berry clamshell designed for better airflow and cooling (U.S. Patent 9,469,458 B2).
Starting at $4,500.
Trial Design & Data Package
For AgTech companies (coatings, sensors, ethylene control, storage technologies), input suppliers, and packaging companies. I design trial protocols that stand up to scrutiny, run commercial trials with grower and shipper partners, turn results into clear value claims your sales team can use, and advise on regulatory data requirements. You get trial protocols, a results summary, and a sales-ready data story.
Starting at $7,500 per trial program.
Shrink & Shelf-Life Audit
For growers, shippers, packhouses, and distributors losing quality between harvest and the customer. An on-site review of harvest timing and handling, cooling, packing, storage, and transport, with temperature and quality checks at key points. You get a written report with root causes, a prioritized action list (quick wins first), and a 30-day follow-up call. 1-2 days on site.
Starting at $5,000 plus travel.
Quality Technology & Advisory
For companies adopting NIR, hyperspectral imaging, machine vision, or AI for quality grading. I help you choose, validate, and roll out measurement tools that work on your product. I led development of AI/ML tools that replaced manual berry inspection. Custom quote.
Ongoing Advisory: a senior postharvest expert on call for calls, data review, trial planning, and strategy, without a full-time hire. Starting at $2,500 per month.
