Agro Nova

Problem

1.4 billion hectares of land are salt-damaged, causing $27.3 billion in annual crop losses. Climate change and poor irrigation practices are accelerating soil salinization, threatening global food security. Current solutions – chemical treatments and flood irrigation – are temporary, expensive, and destroy soil structure. Farmers lack a permanent, affordable, and sustainable solution to restore their land. For the oil & gas sector, salt-affected and contaminated land around drilling sites, pipelines, and refineries presents a similar environmental challenge that requires cost-effective remediation.

Solution

Agro Nova is the world's first 4-in-1 autonomous robot that restores salt-damaged soil and plants crops in a single pass. It combines: (1) AI-powered real-time soil sensing (EC, pH, NPK, moisture), (2) natural gypsum application to replace sodium with calcium, (3) surface tilling (10-15 cm) to mix gypsum into the soil, and (4) planting of salt-tolerant barley. Our technology prevents salt from returning, unlike temporary chemical fixes. We use zero water, zero chemicals, and offer a zero-CAPEX pay-per-hectare service model – farmers pay only for successful results. Our AI-driven platform provides real-time soil health data and predictive analytics.
