Bem Agro Secures R$15 Million in Pre-Series A Funding, Welcomes New Strategic Investors
Bem Agro, a leader in agricultural mapping through artificial intelligence, has successfully raised R$15 million in a pre-Series A funding round. This round was notably supported by industry giants Suzano Ventures, Atvos, and CNH Industrial, marking a significant milestone in Bem Agro’s expansion strategy. In addition to the capital raised, Bem Agro secured R$35 million in contracts, further solidifying its position in the agtech market.
Founded in 2018, Bem Agro provides Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions that cover the entire agricultural cycle, from planting to harvesting. The company uses data from tractors, drones, and satellites to generate detailed agronomic reports, enabling large-scale agricultural management. The recent funding will enable Bem Agro to expand its operations, enhance its technology, and explore new market verticals.
The addition of Suzano, the world’s largest pulp producer, and Atvos, Brazil’s second-largest ethanol producer and a leader in clean energy, as shareholders, alongside CNH Industrial, represents a major boost for Bem Agro. These partnerships, along with previous investments from venture capital funds MMAGRO, Rural Ventures, and AgroVen, will allow Bem Agro to increase revenue generation, invest in technological advancements, and broaden its market reach.
Johann Coelho, CEO and founder of Bem Agro, expressed his appreciation for the support from these new strategic partners, emphasizing their crucial role in the company’s continued growth. Bem Agro currently serves over 400 clients across 11 countries and aims to extend its reach to 10 million hectares in the coming years.
This recent funding follows a prior investment of R$10.2 million earlier in the year, led by CNH Industrial. These earlier funds were directed towards the development of Bem Agro’s AI platform, the expansion of its commercial team, and its internationalization efforts.
