Company Update

There are almost 1 billion acres of farmland in North America, and it is estimated that, currently, data and technology are applied in making input decisions (such as seeding, fertilizer use etc.) on only 30% of this total area under cultivation.

Science and technology can have a significant role to play in improving farm outcomes; including yields, profitability and climate impact.

Deveron is a growing company focused on the North American agriculture market that provides:

  • Data collection services via soil sampling, drones, and other methods
  • Data insights to better manage inputs like fertilizer, seed, water and other crop protection that is based on highly localized data and farm variability
  • Carbon sequestration data services, serving many of the largest agriculture companies with field and analytical support for their carbon programs
  • Standardized data solutions and technology platforms that helps farmers, agronomists and agri-businesses record, organize and leverage on-farm information to make better decisions.
  • Agricultural laboratories and soil health testing services such as Solvita soil health tests

Deveron provides these services directly through:

  • Our online presence at www.deveron.com
