Biome Makers, a leading agtech company in soil health analysis and microbiome technology, on 17 August, announced its winning of the AgTech Data Analytics Solution of the Year award at the fourth annual AgTech Breakthrough Awards programme conducted by leading market intelligence organisation, AgTech Breakthrough

The objective of the annual AgTech Breakthrough Awards programme is to conduct the industry’s most comprehensive analysis and evaluation of agricultural and food technology categories, including Internet-of-Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) based agricultural technologies, farm management, indoor farming, food quality, data analytics and many more. This year, the programme attracted more than 1,750 nominations from more than 15 different countries throughout the world. 

By integrating advanced genomics, microbial network science, and machine learning, the Biome Maker BeCrop technology is able to analyse the entire soil microbiome and provide invaluable insights into specific functions performed by microorganisms.
