Sensilize offers a precision agriculture solution using satellite imagery, drones, sensors, and AI to analyze field data and provide recommendations to double crop yields. It was founded in Israel by agronomists and farmers to bridge the gap between land management needs and advanced technology. The global agriculture market is large and growing, but yields are threatened by issues like soil degradation, pests, and climate change. Sensilize's solution analyzes data to detect weeds, insects and diseases to help farmers optimize resources and increase profits.

5. The
problem 30% of fertile soil
has been lost
during past 40 years
20-40% of global crop
yields are lost each
year during production
due to insects and
diseases
Global population will
increase by 2030
adding another
1.2 bln people to feed

6. Reasons of
yield loss
Weather specific
Flood, Drought, Heat, Frost, Hail,
Wind
Pests
Weeds, Insects, Diseases,
Chemicals
Soil Specific
Chemical and biological content
of soil
Soil compaction, Crop rotation
Wrong managerial
decisions
Misuse of chemicals, fertilisers
and equipment - wrong timing,
location and/or dosages applied
7. Founded and
managing by both
farmers, agriculture
scientists and tech
professionals
Complete solution to
gather, analyze and
implement the data in
real time
Best expertise from
leading Israel AG
sciences incubator
9. To bridge the gap
that exists between
the basic needs of
land management
professionals and
advanced technology

mission
10. FACT: Israel AG science is #1 in the world
Sensilize was founded in 2013 by Israeli scientists with
purpose to invent the most advanced remote sensing device
Member of Phenomics consortium together with Evogene,
Hazera, Rahan, ARO, Elbit, Opgal, Rahan Meristem and
scientific support from 3 Israeli Universities
Purpose of consortium - to develop deep and machine
learning algorithms for phenotyping. Budget: $ 20m.
Each member of consortium will own the algorithms
developed
11. Sensilize is the only project started
by agronomists and farmers
(other precision farming startups
were founded by IT guys)
