Almendra Introduces LED Tech for Open-Field Agriculture

Almendra has developed patented ‘night interruption’ LED technology aimed at enhancing crop yields in open-field agriculture. By applying specific light wavelengths at night, the system can delay flowering in crops like soybeans and stevia, leading to increased leaf production and overall yield. This innovation represents a significant advancement for agrifood operators and investors, particularly as it can be retrofitted to existing irrigation systems, making it a cost-effective solution for large-scale agriculture.
