Crop damage begins with an insect’s decision to land.
Learn
A global scientific effort to turn insect behavior data into training data. Our models learn which kinds of compounds are most likely to change an insect’s decision to land on crops.
Proudly partnering with leaders in global health, crop protection, and machine learning.
Insect behavior data to crop protection.
Predict how at least 75% of new compounds change spotted wing drosophila landing behavior.
Scale-up at least three formulations that reduce spotted wing drosophila crop damage by at least 50% compared with current options.
Insect behavior data → training data → compounds that change an insect’s decision
