Crop protection companies (CPCs) are coming under increasing pressure to help growers reduce their use of chemical pesticides.
RapidAIM Bio-digital crop protection sells area-wide pest analytics to CPCs so that they can deliver precision pest management products and services to their grower customers.
Tracking and detecting pest insects in real time provides assurance and increases adoption by growers and improves the supply and distribution of products for more efficient and sustainable management of pests.
