FarmRaise is dedicated to scaling regenerative agriculture through financial access. It provides farmers with end-to-end farm funding software that sits on a database of 1k plus funding programs. FarmRaise:

  • Matches farmers with funding opportunities,
  • Helps farmers apply to those opportunities quickly and efficiently,
  • Keeps farmers updated with customized-to-the-farm alerts so they never miss a funding opportunity.

Farmers can use FarmRaise’s online EQIP application to replace 8 cumbersome government forms with a 15-minute online process.

Sostena is dedicated to scaling regenerative agriculture through our cloud-based, supply-chain technology platform, ProducePlan®. We believe the future of regenerative agriculture is directly tied to the integration of IoT, AI and Autonomous Agriculture.

Currently Sostena is focusing on three pillars of sustainability within the Produceplan™ eco-system:

  1. Agricultural Supply-Chain Planning: Improving supply and demand equilibrium (we must stop overproducing agricultural products to help promote conservation)
    2. a. Remote supply chain management, remote irrigation, eco-system for new remote technologies under one platform.
  2. Water Conservation: Reduce water waste utilizing IoT connected GroundSight Irrigation Technology integrated into the supply chain via Produceplan™.
  3. Carbon Reduction: Promote carbon reduction of the entire cycle from the seed to the table.

By strategically aligning with FarmRaise, Sostena will be able to help its customers, directly through their Produceplan™ accounts, gain better access and availability of financing through various USDA programs.
