What's the Problem?

The agriculture industry has structurally undervalued the significance of pollination in maximizing fruit quantity and quality in spite of the fact that up to 70% of worldwide crops depend on bee pollination to produce fruits. Lack of pollination can produce malformation, small-sized fruits, and fruit diseases that increase food waste and reduce farmer yields. Additionally, the bee population is declining at an alarming pace and food demand continues to increase globally. Despite secular demand for food production with a reduced environmental footprint, there hasn’t been any innovation in the bee pollination services industry in several decades.

How are they Solving it?

Beeflow provides customized pollination programs to farmers in order to increase crop yields by applying scientific knowledge and proprietary technologies into bee pollination. By feeding bees with Beeflow’s unique, plant-based molecules, Beeflow improves bees’ performance pollinating in cold temperatures by enhancing their immune systems. The technology also trains bees to pollinate specific crops by funneling focus exclusively on targeted flowers instead of getting distracted by others. Beeflow earns a fixed price per acre, in addition to a variable price on increased yields. This results in significantly higher revenue per acre compared to conventional pollination services.
