Computomics, a German agritech company, has secured €6.3 million in Series B funding to scale its climate-smart breeding platform. This round was led by Convent Capital Agri Food Fund, with significant contributions from High-Tech Gründerfonds, MBG Baden-Württemberg, and Amathaon Capital. The company's technology combines genomic data with environmental factors to predict crop performance, aiding breeders in selecting varieties resilient to changing climates. With a focus on field crops, forage crops, vegetables, and specialty crops, Computomics aims to address the challenge of breeding crops for increasingly harsh growing conditions in Europe. The funding will support the expansion of their platform across more commercial breeding programs, marking a significant step towards climate-resilient agriculture.
