Yield mapping
Counting and sizing of the fruit along the row to forecast production zone by zone.
The system
A sensor that works with you
iTractor collects high-resolution data without adding passes: just drive the tractor.
Dual-sided camera
Films both sides of the row in a single pass, for complete coverage of the crop.
Computer vision
Counts the fruit and recognises the plant structures to estimate yield objectively.
Integrated GPS
Every data point is georeferenced: the information becomes precise maps of the field.
Variable-rate treatments
Applies products according to the real needs of each zone, reducing waste.

Vegetative vigour
Maps of crop vigour for targeted interventions and selective harvests/grape harvests.
VRA treatments
Prescription maps for the variable-rate distribution of products and fertilisers.
Automated monitoring system
Dual-sided camera with computer vision and GPS, with integrated lighting to work at night too.
Visualisation dashboard
The platform to monitor the data from every operation and plan the next jobs.
The service, step by step
How it works
1
Install the camera
Plug & play mounting in a few minutes on tractor, farm machine or quad. Modular design compatible with any standard tractor, with no structural modifications.
2
Drive down the rows
At operating speed (max 10 km/h), by day or by night thanks to the integrated lighting. The camera acquires dual-sided images of both sides of the row.
3
The AI processes in real time
The computer-vision algorithms count fruit, flowers and inflorescences, measure the leaf wall area and detect discolouration and plants in difficulty.
4
View the maps
On the dashboard you find the georeferenced yield, vigour and quality maps for each zone of the field, and you export the prescription maps.
5
VRA treatments with ISOBUS
For variable-rate treatments iTractor connects to the ISOBUS sprayer: the dose is adjusted automatically according to the biomass detected.
Supported crops
- Vine
- Apple
- Pear

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about iTractor
What is iTractor?
iTractor is Agrobit's tractor-mounted system with dual-sided camera, computer vision and GPS: as you drive down the rows it counts the fruit, measures vegetative vigour and generates georeferenced yield maps, without stopping field operations.
Which crops does iTractor work on?
iTractor is available for vine, apple, pear, peach, blueberry, avocado and mango.
At what speed is iTractor used?
The recommended operating speed for data acquisition is a maximum of 10 km/h, to ensure the quality of the dual-sided images. The monitoring system is in any case able to operate up to 20-50 km/h.
Does iTractor also work at night?
Yes, thanks to the integrated lighting system you can drive down the rows even in conditions of poor lighting or at night.
How is iTractor installed on the tractor?
The mounting is plug & play, in a few minutes, with a modular and configurable design compatible with any standard tractor, without structural modifications.
Does iTractor integrate with the sprayer for variable-rate treatments?
Yes, iTractor connects to sprayers via the ISOBUS protocol (plug & play): the dose is adjusted automatically in real time (L/ha) according to the biomass detected, with application maps and detection of untreated rows.
