Short for agriculture technology, agritech refers to the application of technology in agriculture, horticulture, and the entire farming process to create efficiencies. These efficiencies can range from improving a crop’s yield, increasing overall productivity & profitability, and so on. By leveraging technology, agritech startups are disrupting the way we produce food globally.

Agritech startups raised a record $8 billion in 2021 and have raised $3.9B as of H2 2022. There are currently 19 agriculture technology unicorns globally, or private companies with a valuation of over $1 billion.
