Agrosight
detects plant diseases early using hyper-spectral signals, dramatically reducing the cost of food production. Our technology detects diseases before they cause serious damage to crops. We do this by detecting minute changes in the light spectrum profile of a plant, signalling that a plant is affected days before any physical manifestation of damage is shown. This significantly reduces crop loss for farmers.
Mayke De Freitas Santos
has been working as a policy advisor and project manager for several NGOs to minimise the impact that agriculture causes to biodiversity globally. He holds degrees from the Universities of London and Cambridge in International Environmental Law and Conservation Policy.
Adolfo Posadas Durand
has a PhD in Physical Science and more than 25 years of experience in applied physics, mathematical modelling and complex systems applied to agriculture, soil physics, ecology, and environmental science.
