Series Big $: The funding round, led by S2G Ventures, Ajax Strategies, and Rabo Ventures delivered beyond expectations. Trace Genomics plans to convert the funds into commercial availability, which will give more agronomists and farmers access to its tech.
The Trace tech: Metagenomics give farmers a peek below the soil’s surface. Through understanding the DNA of soil organisms, farmers can understand soil health, get ahead of potential diseases, and dig into soil fertility. Trace Genomics can help farmers grow more with less.
