AgZen has developed a feedback-optimized spraying system that can help farmers reduce the amount of pesticides used without sacrificing pest management effectiveness. Their product, EnhanceCoverage, increases droplet adhesion to plant surfaces, resulting in better coverage and less chemical runoff. The RealCoverage optimization system measures and optimizes droplet coverage in real-time, leading to significant cost savings for farmers. The company aims to lease these systems at a large scale, potentially saving farmers billions of dollars on chemical costs.
