Problem
Fruit crop production faces significant losses due to inefficiencies and climate-related challenges, leading to substantial food waste and economic impact. Traditional methods struggle to accurately predict crop behavior under varying climatic conditions, resulting in annual production losses of up to 30% and even higher during extreme weather events.
Solution
Biotango offers a genomic and AI-driven platform designed to enhance fruit crop productivity and quality by predicting crop behavior under different climatic conditions. The platform analyzes genomic, environmental, phenological, and management variables to optimize the entire crop cycle, from flowering to harvest. By creating millions of meta-individuals through germplasm crosses, Biotango identifies genotypes best suited to future climates. This approach enables precise planning, increases the percentage of crops reaching export quality, and mitigates food waste by improving efficiency and minimizing losses.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes fruit crop producers, agricultural companies, and research institutions seeking to improve crop yields, reduce losses, and adapt to climate change.
