- Agriculture remains one of the world’s largest yet least digitised industries, with farmers facing rising costs, regulatory pressure, and sustainability demands, while food companies lack reliable, field-level data across fragmented supply chains.
- xFarm Technologies addresses this gap through a fully integrated digital platform that connects farmers, agrifood companies, and supply chains on a single data infrastructure.
- Leveraging AI-powered field intelligence and a proprietary dataset, xFarm’s platform enables data-driven decisions to optimise inputs, improve yields, and reduce resource use across farming operations.
Agriculture is the world’s largest industry, yet still one of the least digitised. At xFarm, we’re building the data infrastructure to reduce inputs, lower emissions and strengthen resilience —
one field at a time.
- At scale, xFarm combines farm management and supply chain analytics across 600,000 farms and 100+ supply chains spanning 17 million hectares, delivering measurable reductions in chemical use (10%), irrigation (25%), and fertiliser use (12%).
- xFarm has gained strong industry recognition, including Startup of the Year 2024, StartupItalia Open Summit Winter (SIOS24), AI Innovation Award, Fieragricola (2024), and B Corp certification since 2025, among other accreditations in technology and impact.
- Dr. Matteo Vanotti, the Founder and CEO of xFarm Technologies, brings together a background in engineering and fintech with hands-on farming experience, driving a mission to make agriculture more measurable, efficient, and sustainable.
