We are excited to announce a partnership with a global provider of sustainable agriculture solutions UPL. Pixofarm and UPL will work together to expand grower access to Pixofarm's technology to help improve efficiency, productivity, and sustainability of fruit farms.
UPL, one of the world's leading agri-inputs companies and a key supplier of crop protection, biological and organic inputs to fruit growers is certain that Pixofarm can help apple growers reduce costs and optimise yields by improving growers access to data on the status of their crop and orchard. UPL will support Pixofarm's growth by expanding its access to apple growers across Europe, and giving Pixofarm additional capital to invest in accelerating product development towards a fully integrated smart farming solution. As an OpenAg Digital Partner, Pixofarm's expansion will be supported by the UPL network which currently operates across 130 countries.Jai Shroff, Global CEO of UPL, said "As part of our OpenAg purpose, we are constantly looking to embrace innovative young companies with new and better ways of helping growers deliver better outcomes for the consumer and the environment.
