My jaw is in my lap at all of the technology to process blueberry's, and people have to wait six months for an operation. Also you work at sorting blueberries all day long and are driving home on the freeway. And all you see is a steady stream of blueberries coming at your windshield!! 🤪
Berries you pick yourself straight from the bushes are the tastiest and sweetest. As well as the fact that these berries from the forest do not have so many chemicals on them. The berry is a delicate fruit that should be eaten shortly after picking. To withstand transport and then weeks of storage in stores, chemicals must be sprayed. There are people here who have never picked berries in the forest and write that those from the forest are small and sour. This is complete nonsense, because no one collects unripe fruit from a bush (unless it is a machine) and there are areas where forest berries are similar in size to cultivated ones (I picked them myself).
It was proven by other buyer who saw the same identical fruit cases at the farmer market like the ones at grocery stores - brand names ! I’m the other person who saw it plus employees who told me used to work at California farms and know the business. Want to buy local farmer produces - get to know the farmer original owners who are easily accessible in person ! If not, then it’s commercial business - possibly not free gmo pesticide etc. Best is go and buy it at the farm lands not at farmer market or groceries!
Have you ever tried to find out how to distinguish genuinely local produce from commercially grown items at these markets? Do you think there’s a way for consumers to ensure they’re getting truly local and fresh produce, or is it often a matter of trusting the vendor?
Amazing what modern technologies can achieve... when I was young my family used to grow raspberries and it was hard work by hands, my helping hands was also needed especially for collecting it.
While people in some corporations are reluctant to work with AI, it is already happening in the agricultural business! Amazing! It’s also good to know that blueberries go through multiple washings before they are packed.
And yet there are still unripe and bruised berries in the packages. AI is not perfect yet. Growing, harvesting etc. at this scale, comes with tons of plastic waste as well. The real innovations should be in the packaging industrie.
Funny thing is, just about nothing labeled AI is actually AI. This isnt even vaguely AI. It's just an advanced sorting algorithm that takes the data from images, and looks for certain patterns we've told it to look for.
My grandparents had a blueberry farm in Pennsylvania. I grew up picking blueberries every summer. I would earn about $40, which was a lot of money if you were 11 in 1966. I wonder what my grandfather would have thought about all this. I guess for me, I feel a little sad.
Have you ever thought about how your grandfather might have reacted to the changes in agriculture and farming practices since his time? Do you find that the nostalgic feelings you have about picking blueberries influence how you view modern farming and the changes that have occurred over the years?
It's amazing what technology can accomplish these days. When I was a child, my family grew raspberries by hand, which required a lot of labor, especially when gathering the berries.
Saying "Human inspection represents the conclusive sorting stage where berries undergo a final examination to detect and remove any lingering defects or contaminants the ai detector machine or sorter may have over looked." just after praising how much better and faster, etc the machine is at detecting and sorting feels like a cop out for the company, if the machines were so much better you wouldn't have a human doing the final check... This is just another company trying to get costs down at the expense of everything else. They could employ people to sort it, but "that's too expensive" which actually translates to "I don't get as much profits, so I can't buy another yacht this year." None of these huge companies are struggling, the fact they can afford the machines in the first places shows that they're not struggling by any means.
Better profit margins are better profit margins. Even if it still requires people to do a touch up job, it greatly increases efficiency for the bulk inspection. It's faster and more accurate compared to the cost of operation.
Holy crap no wonder so many brands of blueberries are so beat up by the time they get to the grocery store. These things are being thrown around the conveyors like ping pong balls wtf
So true! Automation is the only way that makes blueberry (or other fruits) processing beneficial. Labour costs, at least in Europe, Germany, UK or the Netherlands, kill growers. Thankfully, year by year, generation by generation, machines can easily replace people. I have been in the business for over 12 years, running a bluberry farm in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. In 2019 we turned to an all-coverage automation line (a digital sorter, weigh&fill machine, labeller, feed etc.) designed by Polish company Milbor. Truly recommend these guys - they know what they are doing. We use some equipment seen in the video - GP Graders sorter or G2 Evolution packing machine. Results? In our case - processing 420 tones of blueberry per season - the investment in the machinery returned in 3 seasons. Thanks to the machines, we dropped operational costs by 25-28% (depending on the year) vs the last year we processed blueberries manually with hired staff. It would not happen without automation and machines for sure. Automated equipment is a must nowadays.
Why are these machines so good at reducing costs and efficiency but the blueberries are still super expensive at the store? All profits going to buying/maintaining the machines or are the CEOs taking too big a cut? Maybe they should go back to human sorting.
I loved the process! However the only flaw I saw was the employees handling the open containers with ungloved hands, thus introducing bacteria to the blueberries.
You can take the seeds from the store brought blueberries and grow them, I grew a lot of blueberries that way and brought some other plants and the plants last for many years
Berries and other plants are great food for meat animals . My chickens live on tomatoes, squash and extra strawberries. I will never feed my animals anything other than whole foods.
Are they the blueberries that grow small plants basically on the ground, but the blueberry is blueish inside, unlike normal blueberries that are like clear/whiteish inside
What a long and hard process to just have such a healthy and very nutritional food to the market!! I pray to Allah that we appreciate all this effort and to do at least our part to not waste food or to not take good care of it . I pray to Allah to bless everyone who is not wasting food because it is not meant to be wasted. ❤❤❤
I would be interested in how AI is helping with sorting. I suspect its machine learning from an image library which isnt AI at all, but AI is what everyone likes to call any form of automation these days
They are nordic wild blueberries, they grow close to the grown in the wild and are clear blueish inside, while these blueberries here are cultivated blueberries and can grown several meters and the blueberries are a lot bigger and whiteish inside.
as a small blueberry farm owner, I still see that ALL commercial blueberries are still sold UNRIPE even with Ai. When You wait week or 2 weeks till full ripening then each blueberry variety taste different, sweetness percentage is different etc. But UNRIPE taste almost same , without any character in it. fully ripened DUKE or NELSON is just insane taste comparing to unripe.
My father was an Agronomist who did research on row crops. He grew blueberries for home use and ate or put up about 25 gallons/year. Three or four times that quantity were given to others or were picked by friends. Berries were always hand picked and to the extent possible, only ripe berries were picked,.
As someone who grew up in Eastern Europe, let me tell you something. North American blueberries taste like sh*t. These blueberries in the area where I grew up are called dogs berries. I remember paying for one pound €3.50, never sort any of them, all of them tasted so good, plus naturally organic from high altitude mountains. I believe in technology and advancement, but if you want real blueberries, August is their time for harvest is the East Europe. 3:33
Вот для чего нужна наука ,чтоб человеку труд облегчать! Это прекрасно когда есть такая автоматизация предприятия. Можно ведь и платить человеку хорошо и на работе мертвым не падать работая по 12 часов
In my store organic and regular blueberries have the same brand label on the packaging I wish I could see how is that being accomplished in the factory setting The same goes for a lot of other produce 🤔
People that say these companies should be banned because... Bla bla bla... Should be forced to work non stop 8+ hours a day only sorting little fruits in a production line and be paid miserably

Did you know Blueberries, are not actually blue, they are Dark-Purple, they have no blue pigments except the way we perceive light makes them look blue. I could eat a few bunches right about now.

I agree. It's different when you are picking them up freshly.
No, they are sour and small
not true, grandma
@@rabbitfarmus People who have never picked berries themselves in the forest do not understand this.
Blueberries have always been my favorite fruit. Thanks for sharing.
These bluebrries taste absolutely NOTHING 😂😂😂😂
How they wrote this script tho.. Cutting labor cost will improve the consumer satisfaction... Lol 😂
(Increases CEO's bank account satisfaction)
I like how commercialy grown blueberries are sold at farmers markets. Usually by crooks claiming they are sourced locally
How can you tell?
It was proven by other buyer who saw the same identical fruit cases at the farmer market like the ones at grocery stores - brand names ! I’m the other person who saw it plus employees who told me used to work at California farms and know the business.

Just grow them, I have 25 blueberry plants, they last for 50+ years.
Have you ever tried to find out how to distinguish genuinely local produce from commercially grown items at these markets? Do you think there’s a way for consumers to ensure they’re getting truly local and fresh produce, or is it often a matter of trusting the vendor?
Not so sure. We get unripe berries, squashed berries, small, med and large berries and berries with stems still on them - all in one bag.
My friend is addicted to blueberries. He is like a Hoover. He's going to Love this little video. I'll send it him. ❤
Like a hoover😂
Amazing what modern technologies can achieve... when I was young my family used to grow raspberries and it was hard work by hands, my helping hands was also needed especially for collecting it.
What stuns me is the amount of differently sized conveyor belts which apparently do nothing but transport the berries.

Why are you sad
Your grandfather would be very, very amazed 😳at the speed starting from collecting of blueberries to the end where they are packed. I know I am 😋

Each tiny blueberry is scanned and analyzed..............amazing!!!

Good job, Agricultural machinery is a testimony of human ingenuity
Satellite imagery utilized by modern agriculture machines enhances overall farm management.

After watching this, I may have to rethink getting into the blueberry growing business.
I loved the process! However the only flaw I saw was the employees handling the open containers with ungloved hands, thus introducing bacteria to the blueberries.
it's normal in the food industry, not to use gloves because it gets dirty faster and need to change every hour, so....washing your hands is better
That is a misconception. Good hygiene is better and safer than wearing gloves. Gloves are used to protect the worker, not the food.
Where do you think blueberries grow????
So this is how my store-bought blueberries are harvested. Cool.
You can take the seeds from the store brought blueberries and grow them, I grew a lot of blueberries that way and brought some other plants and the plants last for many years
Berries and other plants are great food for meat animals . My chickens live on tomatoes, squash and extra strawberries. I will never feed my animals anything other than whole foods.

No wonder most blueberries are soft. The crunchiest blueberries I buy are from Family Tree Farms.
power of both robots and human hands feed the world.
I love it so much. Everyday I enjoy. South Korea. Thank you.❤❤❤
these are the blueberries with white interiors and more pesticides than vitamins left in them
Farmers get paid 1 dollar a pound for blueberry and these big companies charge 8-10 dollars to ppl

Whenever I see blueberry, I can't help but reminded of South park 😂😂
Did anyone else notice the dead bird in the white crate on 9:09 ?
Wild blueberries in North America are grown in the Province of Québec and they taste much better than cultivated blueberries
Are they the blueberries that grow small plants basically on the ground, but the blueberry is blueish inside, unlike normal blueberries that are like clear/whiteish inside

Gorgeous blueberries😍
These baskets are strategically placed onto the conveyors.
That machine is slapping those baskets
These are not blueberries I used to harvest in the forest. The flesh is white. When we had eaten them our tongue was blue.
exactly, this is the kind you can grow at home in the garden.
Not the many times more novel of another species that grows in the forest.
They are nordic wild blueberries, they grow close to the grown in the wild and are clear blueish inside, while these blueberries here are cultivated blueberries and can grown several meters and the blueberries are a lot bigger and whiteish inside.
It would be interesting to know how green and unripe blueberries are used or dealt with.
as a small blueberry farm owner, I still see that ALL commercial blueberries are still sold UNRIPE even with Ai. When You wait week or 2 weeks till full ripening then each blueberry variety taste different, sweetness percentage is different etc. But UNRIPE taste almost same , without any character in it. fully ripened DUKE or NELSON is just insane taste comparing to unripe.

These berries have almost no taste.
@@lovofarm Seems they do not collect them in the forests anymore.
Que fruta preciosa.
In Finland, it's free to pick from forest and tax free when you sell it
Love blueberries
I am surprised how the berries don't get damaged by so many kicks and bumps. 😊
(they do)
Blueberries are curing my back muscle injuries.
Gloria a ti,señor,por todo/ Viva Christo Rey
people at the end literally barehanded touching the berries xd i feel like this could be run way more efficiently

• Specific lactic acid bacteria cultures are added to the milk.
• Incubation

Thank you for this video. Very interesting and good to know how my blueberries I purchase are prepared.
Farmed blueberries with extremely out watered taste, at least they are cheap for people not access to the natural product.
AI is needed to determine color differences?
How would you sort full ripe. from not berries, spoiled or damaged goof
exactly what I like
I guess "AI" means any machine that had electricity in it
Ai just means you’re using an algorithm to get an output.
@@mistermood4164 Which isn't what AI is.
Thank you for this video. Very interesting technology processing Machines
Seriously 😳 awestruck for real.
The harvester is amazing❤❤❤❤❤❤
OMG, first time seeing this technology, very interesting
In my store organic and regular blueberries have the same brand label on the packaging I wish I could see how is that being accomplished in the factory setting The same goes for a lot of other produce 🤔
I wonder how they keep crows from eating all the berries in the field?
They keep a small army of eagles on watch at the farms.
Everything is called AI these days even when it's not as in this factory.
lol yea they can call any form of automation, apps or software “AI” these days.
Complains about machine picking unripe fruit, later: discards perfectly fine fruit as excess to avoid market price downswing when market has glut.
Love my blueberries, I like the wild kind better though : )
Don’t buy in the off season and support local farmers; it’s the correct thing to do!
Great blueberries harvester

Amazing
Really impression with your machine 🤩🤩🤩🤩
I am blue berry eater like millions of people out there lol 😂 love the hygiene process..
Love berries
No gloves when picking them off the conveyer belt?
But do they taste good? Lots tumbling, id be worried they be so soft when packaged
