The Almond Hort360 logo has a new look, and the platform will now be called Almond360.
Almond360 is an industry-specific adaptation of Hort360, an online best management practice portal that allows growers to assess their operations and see how they compare to others in their industry. It is made up of a series of self-assessment modules on different topics. All modules are developed by the ABA and peer-reviewed by growers and other industry experts.
Despite the rebrand, the modules and content will remain the same. However, there have been some changes to the platform.
In addition to the risk report, growers will now receive an AI summary report for each module. The summary report, which is powered by Claude, provides almond growers with an overview of operational strengths and priority actions.
A new module is now available. The Better Business module is designed to help almond growers ensure that they have the right systems in place to respond to challenges and opportunities. There are now 12 modules in total.
To optimise the benefits of the platform, modules should be completed annually. With pollination just around the corner, now is a good time to assess your pollination practices using the Almond360 pollination module. Identify opportunities for a more effective and efficient pollination season today.
