TITLE: Hi-Tech kiwifruit Psa protection system.
SYNOPSIS:
The single greatest threat to the $1.5billion kiwifruit industry is Psa. It is spread by wind, rain and the transfer of infected plant material. The Crenpro System is designed to take weather, and therefore Psa, out of the income equation.
PROPOSAL SUMMARY:
Crenpro Systems Ltd has produced a conceptual design for a crop enhancement and protection system. The Crenpro System is a fully enclosing set of synchronized, automated, high strength, high light transmitting (94%) polymer covers that are both automated and individually retractable. These features allow for more effective management of the kiwifruit-growing environment; something that a permanent, fixed structure or a simple cover over the vines can never replicate.
The Crenpro System has been designed for use with a wide variety of high-value horticultural crops, while eliminating the effects of Psa, wind rub, frost, bird, and hail damage, provides sufficient incentive to install a Crenpro System over most orchards/vineyards.
Add to this the ability to manage the temperature over the critical period of early canopy development and on through the period of rapid carbohydrate (dry matter) accumulation and the advantages for the growers are astonishing.
The advantages for Post-harvest facilities are significant as well. Higher volume early-maturing crops of increased dry matter, lower reject rate, better size and colour development are but the appetiser for the post-harvest operator. Crenpro System technology would eliminate the seasonal disparities brought about by cold, wet or windy weather and their influence on pack house seasonal planning. The Crenpro System would allow the harvest to proceed as planned irrespective of the weather while the better fruit quality would lead to significantly reduced costs associated with packing and cool store management, fruit condition-checking and repacking.
While the medium-term focus is kiwifruit, future business growth will also include the wine industry. Once grape growers become aware of the technology, we expect sales of the Crenpro System to increase further.
MANAGEMENT TEAM:
Paul Crawford B.E NZCE (Civil). Paul is part owner and Director/Project Manager for Crenpro Systems Limited. Paul has both a Certificate and a Degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Auckland and currently works for Opus International Consultants Ltd. Paul has 37 years engineering experience both in New Zealand and Western Australia, along with skills developed over 20 years as Project Manager in the infrastructure development field. Paul has drawn on this extensive experience in preparing and presenting conceptual drawings and a specification for the detailed design of the Crenpro System.
David Crawford is part owner and Managing Director of Crenpro Systems Limited. With over 30 years experience in all aspects of kiwifruit orchard development, husbandry, harvest, packing, cool storing and export. David's determination to mitigate the effects of weather has led to the design of this high-tech Crop Enhancement and Protection system for kiwifruit and grape growers.
RETURN ON INVESTMENT:
We have taken the design as far as we can without significant structural input and it is in advancing the concept design to an engineered design of complete structural soundness and functionality, that we require an estimated $150,000.
An investor would have a view to involvement in firstly, the trial and following this, commercial introduction of the technology. We are prepared to offer a majority shareholding to such an investor/s, to be negotiated.
