Manual labor for harvest accounts for nearly half the cost of producing strawberries, and its work that nobody wants to do. Augmenting that with @traptic machines helps farmers grow and expand despite a shrinking pool of labor in the US and worldwide.

Thrilled to back @lewisDotAi and team at @traptic in addressing labor shortages affecting $200B of fruits and vegetables annually. Lewis met our luminary LP @BillGates to discuss agtech and company strategy. techcrunch.com/2021/07/01/af…

We don't sell machines. Instead, we provide harvesting-as-a-service. This means farmers see an immediate improvement in their business without changing their behavior or making any big up-front investments

$200B of fruits and vegetables are picked by hand each year. Existing farm machines lack the delicacy and precision necessary to harvest them. @traptic's latest machine solves this

We have large-scale automation for crops like wheat and corn, but fruits and vegetables are still harvested by hand by humans. @Traptic is changing this by building harvesting robots that can augment human labor and help save food production. youtu.be/ZPmsvnouJ9w

$300M of strawberries are wasted due to lack of labor each year. Our combined human-machine harvest service fills that gap.
