FarmWise was founded in summer 2016 by Sebastien Boyer and Thomas Palomares,
long-time friends and engineers passionate about sustainability challenges.
They started to imagine how the technology they used while working in MIT
and Stanford Computer Science laboratories could be used to make farming
drastically more efficient.
Thanks to the trust and collaborative effort of two visionary growers in
California, their idea of a machine that could kill weeds without using
chemicals went from a proof-of-concept to a commercialized product.
Today, our team of 70 is a mix of farming experts and technologists.
Building on three successful seasons in California and Arizona as a commercial
weeding service provider, we're excited to be adding new crops to our portfolio
and working on breakthrough technologies that will benefit both growers and the environment.
