It was great to show @DefraGovUK Farming Minister @Mark_Spencer the benefits of eWeeding during his visit last week. RootWave provides full control of weeds, with zero chemicals. #BetterWeedControl
Keeping control of weeds is a crucial task all farmers face.
It was fascinating to see @RootWave's innovative solution to avoid using chemical herbicides.
In developing their electric weeder, they received £170k as part of Defra’s Farming Innovation Programme.
Following a final pitching event, held at @AgTechUCD Innovation Centre in Co. Kildare, @moonsyst was named the @AIBIreland and @TheYieldLab AgTech Start-up 2024 and received a €10k prize.
