CropX…Grow more, Water less



In drought, saving water in any way possible is crucial. Farmers have to find a way to toe the line between saving water and keeping their crops alive. And since so much of the farming process has become automated, it’s likely that each part of a farmer’s field will get the same amount of water, whether that amount of water is actually necessary or not.
CropX is a new agriculture technology company that is looking to solve that problem. The company sells smart sensors, which can tell farmers which parts of their fields actually need water at any given time.
