How to count fruit in a crate, tray or bin from a photo
Photograph a crate, tray or bin from above and this fruit counter marks each piece of fruit it can see. You check the dots, adjust the markers and add the count to a harvest or packhouse tally. It counts what is visible in the photo, so fruit under the top layer or behind leaves is not included, and it does not weigh, grade or judge ripeness.
Count fruit in a crate from a top-down photo
Fill the frame with the crate and shoot straight down in even light. Shade the crate if sun makes bright patches and dark gaps between pieces. Glossy skins throw highlights that can read as extra fruit, so look at bright spots before you accept the count. Large melons in a field or on a pallet have their own page to count watermelons from a photo.
- Fill the frame with one crate, tray or bin and keep the camera above it.
- Upload the photo; fruit counting starts automatically.
- Review the automatic count, then compare the dots with the fruit in each corner.
- Drag Included markers if highlights or leaves picked up dots.
- Add the crate to the tally and type its bin or block number as the label.
Count mixed fruit type by type
For a bin with apples and pears or a market display of several kinds, review every retained marker. When you need a separate total per fruit type, photograph each group separately and give its reviewed count a labelled tally row. Similar produce and overlapping fruit can still be confused.
Estimate a harvest from sample crates
Count a few representative crates, log each as its own row, average them, then multiply by the number of crates to estimate the harvest. Treat the figure as an estimate: crates differ, and the counter only sees the visible layer. Bulk audit, a Premium feature, counts a queue of crate photos in one run using automatic counting. For packhouse stock across racks and bays, run a stock-take shelf by shelf.
Know what a top-layer photo cannot see
Fruit below the top layer, behind leaves or in the crate's own shadow is not in the photo, so it is not in the count. Spread a deep bin onto a tray in one layer for a firmer number, or count it in several passes. Write the method next to the number so the figure can be compared with the next harvest.
Before you count the fruit
- Remove leaves, stems and packing material that could be mistaken for fruit.
- Photograph in shade or overcast light to cut glare off glossy skins.
- Keep fruit that looks alike, such as two apple varieties, in separate photos.
- Pair the count with dispatch paperwork: count the cartons on the pallet and count eggs from the same farm.
More counts for farms and packhouses
Eggs from the same farm can be counted from a tray or collection-table photo, packed produce can be checked as cartons counted on a pallet, and grazing herds can be estimated from a high vantage point.
