Thank you to HSBC Commercial Banking and Wired Consulting for recognizing Tropic as one of their Trailblazer companies in 2024. In Wired’s recent article, they highlight how we’re leveraging gene editing to make crops more resilient to climate and disease challenges, essential steps for sustainable food production in a rapidly changing world. We’re proud to contribute to reshaping the future of agriculture, driving innovations that promote resilience and efficiency in our food systems.

At Agryco (ex agriconomie), we are committed to driving innovation and efficiency in everything we do. AI is now embedded in almost all our services, from sales to HR, marketing to catman, logistics to Tech, completely transforming the way we manage our daily operations. Our latest breakthrough, the Catalogue IA Project, is a perfect example of how we leverage Artificial Intelligence to transform our operations and deliver even more value to our customers and teams. By integrating AI into the creation of our product catalogs, we’ve reduced the time needed to generate product sheets from 15 minutes to just 🚀 8 seconds! Not only has this made us 40x more productive, but it has also allowed us to cut costs by more than 95%. This level of efficiency frees our teams to focus on what truly matters: creating high-value strategies and engaging with our farmers in more impactful ways. We’ve already produced and reviewed 25,000 product sheets, all fully standardized and ready for multilingual use. This is AI in action, making our workflows smoother and more powerful than ever. 💾 On the technical side, we’ve trained 3 dedicated AI models over the past 12 months to handle different aspects of product categorization. Each product category is managed by specific AI prompts, ensuring highly targeted and accurate outputs. These AIs were extensively tested and fine-tuned with thousands of iterations, ensuring robustness. We've also implemented custom scripts to automate workflows and connect seamlessly with our PIM system, ensuring full integration and smooth scalability while maintaining high quality and consistency. You might think it’s an easy project… BUT HELL NO! It was long and meticulous - and we wanted the quality to be 100%. At Agryco, AI is not just about automation; it’s about empowering our teams to work smarter and achieve more. We’ll be sharing more concrete examples of our AI advancements in the coming weeks, so stay tuned! AI is shaping our future, and we’re excited to continue leading the way in transforming agriculture.

As a global leader in harnessing the transformative power of gene editing, we’re proud to announce our next big venture! We’re making an equity investment in Pairwise and collaborating with them on a new joint venture to drive the future of sustainable innovation in food and agriculture. To benefit farmers and consumers, we’ll work to accelerate the delivery of advanced gene edited technologies aimed at driving climate resilience and increasing crop yields for food, fuel and fiber production, while expanding the reach and benefits of gene editing to a wide variety of staple and specialty crops.

We are thrilled to share that we have developed the world's first seedless blackberry! “A key challenge in our food system is helping people eat more high-quality, healthy foods. As part of our drive to increase the consumption of fruit and vegetables, we’re working to provide consumers with new, highly nutritious food options with improved flavor and convenience,” said Tom Adams, Pairwise Co-Founder and CEO. “With a deep understanding of the plant genome, an accurate, efficient, and scalable process, and streamlined pathway to commercialization, we are not only creating new products with our proprietary CRISPR technology, we are creating a new era of innovation in agriculture.” In addition to achieving the first seedless trait in any caneberry, we’ve created thornless and compact traits in the same variety to deliver benefits for consumers, growers, and the environment all in one.
