The Science behind Nx has been in commercial use 3 decades

Heading

Nx is the result of years (since 2017) in the use of hand-held spectrometers to measure soil (Agrocares) and produce (SCiO, BioNutrient Meter) nutrient densities. 


The developer (3 Biz degrees) has been a 'problem solver' in the use of IT since 1976, trained originally by Unilever, worked with IBM, for HP and several  supply chain / work force optimization software companies, using real-time AI/NN to solve complex SCO and WFO 'puzzles' since 2008.


Together with his son (a horticulturist, agronomist), they went 'beyond organics' in 2001 into chem-free, GM-free, nutrient dense farming, becoming 'price makers' getting 25% better prices for produce twice the nutrient density of competitors.


Now retired, we wish to pass on our knowledge & skills, imbedded in tools and systems to others wanting to the same and for Consumers to find the most delicious, nutritious in-store or online. 


So, we researched 'best thinking' on the subject (as below) to develop in 2023, a hand-held, fast, easy, low-cost  device to be used by Consumers and Growers in connecting with each other using "objective" metrics and gradings, for 450 varieties available in ANZ, instead of opinions,   certifications, farming methods, producer decided 5-star Self-Rating systems, etc.

Explanation of BRIX Readings and Ratings.

The use of BRIX Readings and Ratings

Since 2010, when we first  used the BRIX meter, which our store Customers insisted on calling a NutriMeter, we have sold 10  evolutions of the NutriMeter.


The above was the 6th, the Nutrimeter VI, an enhancement of the SCiO scanner / spectrometer which we used in the field and the store since 2017. 


SCiO used the Dr. Carey Reams' BRIX Readings and Rating Chart as indicated above. 


You can find (and print out) more info on this Chart  here.
