North Carolina-based inducible gene-regulation-platform, SwitchBlade TM , that activates crop defense traits only under disease or stress pressure when and where needed.
Upsteam’s mission is to create the next-generation of plant immune system regulation for biotic and abiotic stressors to create a more resilient food supply that is less reliant on synthetic chemistry and climate stressors.
Colorado-based BOPA provides farmers with smart robotics for precision, mechanical weeding through the use of autonomous nano tractors (ANT) for small and midsize farmers.
BOPA is committed to strengthen farmer resiliency through automating labor-intensive crop operations. With a focus on farmer-centric design, the modular ANT platform reduces labor dependency and reduces input use while generating high-resolution, in-field data to support better agronomic decision making.
