Agriodor is the first company worldwide to design this type of solution. The rapid progress enabled the company to raise funds and earn the French Tech 2030 label. With two distribution contracts already signed, Agriodor is now experiencing strong project acceleration. The expansion of target insects and crops includes beet, potato, fruit trees (stone fruits, apple trees), berries, tropical fruits, and soon maize, soybean, and cotton.
