AgTech Startup PerPlant Secures €1M to Revolutionize Farming with AI-Powered Precision Spraying
Summary
PerPlant, a Copenhagen-based AgTech startup, raised €1 million in a round led by Jytte Rosenmaj and Kræn Østergaard Nielsen to accelerate rollout of its AI-driven precision spraying system. The tractor-mounted system uses high-resolution cameras and machine learning to detect weeds and apply herbicides with centimeter-level precision, claiming up to 90% reduction in herbicide use and 30% less fertilizer for an average 200-hectare farm. The company has mapped over 200,000 hectares across Europe, operates in 12 countries with 15 employees, and already has backing from Antler and The Footprint Firm. PerPlant plans further expansion including into the U.S., and provides audit-grade documentation useful for regulators, insurers, and banks.
