Company Summary
aWhere harnesses the power of data for climate-smart agriculture. 500 million of the world's 580 million farmers have little or no access to technology, but must feed 2/3 of the world’s population. This is compounded by a global population of 11 billion by 2050 and increasing weather variability from climate change. aWhere will generate a billion new data points every day for real-time hyper-local recommendations delivered directly to farmers.
