Avocado Society of Kenya uses NIR spectroscopy by Felix Instruments

The Avocado Society of Kenya is an association for avocado producers, exporters, and other industry players. They seek to promote efficiency and organized marketing to ensure steady profitability for Kenya’s avocado business. The Society cooperates with public and private stakeholders to offer services that empower small-scale farmers and boost productivity in response to market demands.

The association helps growers to achieve the highest quality and quantity of their crops. They also guide members in establishing orchards, provide training on good agricultural practices, and assist with compliance with local and international standards. 

To test the quality of the fruit, the Avocado Society of Kenya utilizes NIR spectroscopy by Felix Instruments. This technology enables non-destructive analysis of the fruit’s composition, as well as the measurement of dry matter, ripeness, and oil content. Thus, they can guarantee that the highest quality avocados are exported to buyers.

Felix Instruments is one of the world-class experts in NIR spectroscopy. The company develops and manufactures NIR assessment and gas analysis tools for growers, breeders and distributors to obtain critical data from fruit quickly and non-destructively. 

On February 8-10, Felix Instruments will participate in Fruit Logistica Berlin.
