[ 01 ]About

Pesticide pollution causes 200K deaths per year. Farmers currently spray 50x more pesticides than they need, as most of what’s sprayed bounces off plant surfaces due to their natural water repellency. AgZen's field-tested and patented technology allows it to reduce pesticide usage by 50%. Its technology acceptance model (TAM) is $9B.
