Nirby

We create drones that analyze the soil and help increase yields!

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Nirby is an advanced soil health analysis and farm management system that uses satellite data and autonomous drones to accurately measure soil health in real time.Patented technology enables detailed fertilizer application maps, reducing fertilizer use by up to 40% and increasing yields by up to 15%. By combining artificial intelligence, satellite data and spectroscopic measurements, Nirby eliminates the need for time-consuming laboratory tests, providing farmers with results in 5 minutes instead of 8 weeks.

WHAT NEEDS DOES THE INNOVATION ADDRESS?

More than 60% of farmers test the soil only once every few years, leading to inaccurate fertilization. As a result, as much as 65% of fertilizer used is wasted, generating more than 2.6 billion tons of CO₂ emissions in the process and causing annual losses of up to $75 billion. Traditional soil analysis methods are costly and time-consuming, and the results are often lost before they can be used.Nirby eliminates this problem by combining satellite analysis with autonomous drones that take measurements of soil health and provide precise fertilizer recommendations in just minutes.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

Nirby is the world’s only system integrating satellite analysis, infrared spectroscopy and autonomous drones for instant soil health testing. Nirby’s patented technology eliminates the need for manual soil sampling with long waits for laboratory results. Nirby combines field monitoring, automatic application map generation and fertilizer management on a single platform. The convenient subscription model combined with the system’s high operational efficiency is a unique combination of cost savings, convenience and precision.
