As food systems evolve, agritech continues to introduce solutions that improve efficiency, sustainability, and market access. Agritech companies across different segments are developing tools to refine how food is grown, processed, and distributed. Here are ten of such companies to watch out for in 2025.
1. AgMonitor
AgMonitor is a software company that helps farmers optimise water use, energy costs, and crop yields. The company integrates machine learning with real-time farm data to enable better resource allocation and improved efficiency. Founded in 2016, it operates across the United States and parts of Europe.
Beyond individual farm operations, AgMonitor works with cooperatives, agricultural lenders, and policymakers to promote sustainable practices. Its technology has helped farms cut costs while boosting productivity.
A major milestone came in 2024, when AgMonitor expanded partnerships with key irrigation districts, which led to measurable reductions in water waste. The company’s data-driven approach has positioned it as a critical player in precision agriculture and scalable solutions for agribusinesses of all sizes.
2. Sencrop
Established in 2016 by an electronic engineer and the son of a grain farmer, Sencrop connects weather data directly to farm operations. Its precision weather application, powered by local weather stations, helps farmers make timely decisions based on real-time conditions. With Sencrop, users can access station data, monitor field conditions, and rely on highly accurate weather forecasts tailored to their plots. The company operates in the UK, France, Germany, and the Netherlands.
Sencrop’s technology plays a crucial role in Europe’s agro-ecological transition. Through the app, farmers can gain ultra-local insights into temperature, humidity, wind speed, and rainfall—crucial data that supports more informed and strategic farming decisions.

In January 2025, Groupe ISAGRI acquired Sencrop, which marked an important shift in the company’s journey. The acquisition strengthens Sencrop’s service offering and transitions it from a startup to an integral part of a family-owned, independent agri-service network.
3. Breedr
The UK-based company was launched in 2018 and has since expanded into Australia and North America. Breedr is on a mission to empower farmers with the tools to produce environmentally and commercially sustainable meat in order to safeguard the future of their businesses and the planet.
Through its platform, farmers can log animal data such as genetics, weight, health, fertility, and medication history, using their smartphones. Data can be manually entered or integrated via sensors, wearables, and tags. The app also offers an online marketplace where farmers can trade livestock directly.
In 2022, the livestock management platform secured £12 million ($15.8 million) in funding and introduced a financial product designed to support farmers’ cash flow.
4. Reforest
Reforest uses AI-powered drones to plant trees at scale to advance land restoration and reforestation. The company, founded in 2019, applies data analytics to find the best locations for planting and improved tree survival rates.
The Australia-based company helps businesses and events take real climate and nature-positive action by planting trees in high-quality local projects and providing a way to showcase that impact.
Operating across multiple continents, Reforest collaborates with governments and environmental organisations to combat deforestation. Reports confirmed that the company had successfully planted close to 5 million trees and restored over 5,000 hectares, which has had a tangible impact on carbon sequestration and ecosystem recovery.
5. AquaSpy
Founded in 2008, AquaSpy is a cloud-based IoT agriculture platform that connects growers with specific crop plant behaviour and needs. Based in San Diego, California, AquaSpy delivers a proven Intelligent Crop Sensing System for guaranteed yield improvement.
Furthermore, the company specialises in soil moisture monitoring, which provides farmers with real-time data to optimise irrigation strategies. Through advanced sensors and analytics, the company helps reduce water waste and equally ensures crops receive the precise amount of hydration needed for optimal growth.
Partnerships with large agricultural enterprises and research institutions have allowed AquaSpy’s technology to scale globally.
6. Ekobot
Ekobot is automating the field with its AI-powered robotic solutions for weed control. Founded in 2017 and located in Västerås, Sweden, the company’s autonomous robots use computer vision and machine learning to identify and eliminate weeds efficiently. Their solutions have also been useful in reducing the reliance on chemical herbicides.
Field trials across Europe have demonstrated Ekobot’s potential to cut labour costs and improve crop health. Sustainability being at its core, the company’s technology aligns with the growing demand for eco-friendly agricultural practices. Their solutions offer farmers an efficient alternative to traditional weed management.
7. Cowtribe
As Africa’s first on-demand veterinary vaccine distribution platform, Cowtribe has been transforming animal healthcare for smallholder farmers since 2016. Part of Cowtribe innovation is the development of a smart supply chain and logistics platform that efficiently delivers livestock vaccines and other inputs to rural farmers in Ghana.
In addition to veterinary services, the company also supports farmers with vital agricultural services such as information on best farming practices and critical alerts regarding disease outbreaks and disruptive weather patterns.
Through its logistics network and partnerships with veterinary suppliers, Cowtribe ensures timely and affordable delivery of vaccines to remote areas. Cowtribe’s impact on improving livestock survival rates and farmer incomes has positioned the company as an important stakeholder in last-mile veterinary service delivery.
8. Releaf
Releaf enhances food processing efficiency across Africa with proprietary hardware and software solutions. This Nigerian-based company was founded in 2017 and specialises in mechanised palm nut processing to reduce post-harvest losses and improve smallholder farmers’ supply chain efficiency.
Releaf’s model stretches across the entire palm oil value chain, and their solutions enable farmers to earn more for their oil by selling it to fast-moving consumer goods companies and other buyers.
In an interview with AgFunder News, co-founder Ikenna Nzewi shared their objective: to reduce the burden of labour for farmers so that they can spend their time focusing on production, and factories can focus their time on processing. As of 2021, the company had worked with 2,000 smallholder palm farmers and aims to reach over 10,000 in the next couple of years.
9. AgriPredict
AgriPredict tackles agricultural risks with AI-driven predictive analytics. The platform provides real-time insights into weather patterns, pest outbreaks, and crop diseases. These insights help farmers make proactive decisions that protect their yields.
Founded in 2016 by Mwila Kangwa, AgriPredict helps farmers in Zambia spot crop diseases that have hurt their farms in previous years. With the company’s mobile app, 22,000 farmers can access information on plant diseases and weather patterns, which they would have needed an expert for before. This has allowed farmers to cut costs and run their farms more efficiently.
Their solutions also helps older farmers who aren’t tech-savvy access reliable information without needing expensive data plans. Government agencies and agribusinesses also use AgriPredict to improve food security by reducing climate-related risks.
10. Agrofy
Launched in 2015, Agrofy is a digital marketplace for the agricultural sector. The platform connects farmers with suppliers for machinery, equipment, inputs, financial services and in essence, enhances efficiency across the agribusiness supply chain.
Based in Rosario, Argentina, Agrofy positions itself as “the leading agribusiness online market in Latin America.” It operates in nine countries across the region, with its presence most prominent in Argentina. What started as an online marketplace with around 150,000 products now includes financial services.
Agrofy’s presence across Latin America makes it a big player in agri-commerce. Partnerships with agribusiness firms and financial institutions has helped farmers easily access what they need.
