Innova Memphis

We seek to accelerate adoption of sustainable ag practices and maximize farm profits through non-chemical, directed energy (DE) solutions. We currently have consumer use DE weed control products selling online and in big-box retailers. Our next product, the WDSD, addresses the challenge of herbicide-resistant weeds in grain crops. The WDSD quickly attaches to combine harvesters and applies DE to weed seeds making them nonviable without chemicals.

EarthSense, Inc. specializes in developing agricultural robotics and artificial intelligence solutions to enhance farming practices. Based in Champaign, Illinois, the company has created TerraSentia, an ultracompact, autonomous robot equipped with various sensors and onboard computing capabilities for plant phenotyping. This innovative technology addresses critical issues in agriculture, such as labor shortages, environmental impacts, and the need for sustainable practices. EarthSense's platform focuses on three main applications: improving crop productivity and sustainability, providing actionable intelligence for growers, and tackling challenges like herbicide-resistant weeds. The modular design of their technology encourages collaboration and innovation within the agricultural sector, ultimately aiming to create a climate-smart agricultural system that enhances plant and soil health while reducing reliance on chemicals and costly inputs.
