Data-driven climate start-up building a digital twin of the global food system for organizations to make timely decisions.
Farmers who use weather forecasts take more protective measures but access to reliable information remains limited.

In India, we are working with WOTR to bridge this gap, integrating real-time climate monitoring with crop intelligence and market insights.

Our latest monitoring data from Central Asia show a further decline in the region's mountain snowpack.

Working with TIIAME in Uzbekistan, we've been actively monitoring the situation since 2008. Smaller tributaries have lost over 50% of their minimum snow cover compared to two decades ago.

Yep. People have started to appreciate (and question) the fact that we use 30-40% of our US corn supply for ethanol, but it flies under the radar that we now use 40-50% of our US soybean oil supply for biodiesel.

BTW all this supplies only like 5% of US transport fuel.

Inefficient resource use.
A lot of people are on to ethanol, but what's often missed is that we are using more than another 25M acres for soy biodiesel.
~45% of US corn production is now used to make ethanol, mostly for mixing into gasoline.

That's ~13% of all US crop land already used for energy production.

Using some of the same land for solar panels would capture 50-100 times more energy per acre.
