☆ This startup helps plants talk to farmers, reducing pesticides and agricultural waste
  + stars: | 2024-04-25 | by ( Diana Olick | In Dianaolick | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
What if plants could talk to farmers and tell them when they're distressed? That would not only help the plants but also reduce the amount of agricultural waste that threatens the planet's health. Now companies like SatAgro, Climate FieldView, and a California-based startup called InnerPlant are working to reduce agricultural waste. From that signal, farmers know what to treat, meaning they don't waste money on chemicals, which are over-applied by up to 30%, Aronov said. In addition to Bison Ventures, InnerPlant is backed by John Deere, MS&AD Ventures, UpWest VC and Bee Partners.
