The mission of the annual AgTech Breakthrough Awards program is to recognize the innovators transforming the global agricultural and food production landscape through technology. The program conducts a comprehensive analysis of the companies, technologies and solutions redefining how crops are grown, livestock is managed and food is produced and distributed. From precision agriculture platforms and farm management software to AI-driven yield forecasting, IoT-based soil and water sensing, and synthetic biology innovations, these breakthrough innovations are enabling agricultural companies to operate more sustainably, feed a growing global population and shape the future of how the world grows and produces food. The AgTech sector is rapidly redefining how food is produced, managed and distributed – transforming one of the world’s most essential industries. From AI-driven crop analytics and precision farming platforms to sustainable agriculture solutions and autonomous equipment, AgTech is delivering greater efficiency, transparency and environmental responsibility. This year’s AgTech Breakthrough Award winners are leading that evolution across categories including farm management, IoT and robotics, analytics and more. Many of this year’s AgTech nominations focused on helping growers manage water scarcity and volatile seasons, with systems that apply inputs precisely and protect yields under stress, alongside biological products designed to fit within existing chemistry-based programs. Data platforms are also connecting more of the operation, linking the field, the elevator and the balance sheet. “Agriculture is entering a defining era as producers and food-system leaders face mounting pressure to increase productivity, strengthen resilience and meet growing global demand with fewer resources,” said Bryan Vaughn, Managing Director of AgTech Breakthrough. “This year’s winners are delivering genuine breakthroughs—from smarter farm management and precision crop solutions to advanced robotics, biotechnology and food-production systems that are creating measurable impact across the agricultural value chain. We are proud to recognize these outstanding innovators and congratulate all of our 2026 AgTech Breakthrough Award winners.” The 2026 AgTech Breakthrough Award winners include: ANALYTICS AgTech Data Analytics Company of the Year: EpiCrop Technologies AgTech Data Analytics Solution of the Year: AgriERP, Folio3 AUTOMATION AND ROBOTICS Agricultural Robotics Innovation of the Year: M5 Narrow with Agtonomy, Kubota Tractor Corporation FoodTech Equipment of the Year: FloVision Solutions Overall Agriculture Robotics Solution of the Year: Thorvald, Saga Robotics FOOD REPLACEMENT TECH Food Replacement Innovation of the Year: Happy Plant Protein HARVESTING SOLUTIONS Overall Harvesting Innovation of the Year: Beagle Tech IN-FIELD SYSTEMS Biological Crop Input Solution of the Year: Jord BioScience's 9311 Crop Protection Innovation of the Year: Reklemel™ active, Corteva Agriscience Precision Fertilization Solution of the Year: Dosing 5G, Netafim INTERNET-OF-THINGS AND AI Agronomy Solution of the Year: AGRIVI AI Engage AI-based AgTech Innovation of the Year: AGMRI, Intelinair IRRIGATION Irrigation Innovation of the Year: E3 Center Pivot, Reinke Manufacturing POST HARVEST SYSTEMS ERP Software of the Year: VitalEdge Technologies Overall Post Harvest Solution of the Year: oneWeigh, Greenstone Systems and Solentra Global, part of the Cultura Technologies Family SUSTAINABILITY AgTech Climate Innovation of the Year: WETA, Rain Enhancement Technologies AgTech Sustainability Innovation of the Year: Silicone Substrate, KAPPA AgTech  Climate Adaptation Solution of the Year: EliTerra®, Elicit Plant Regenerative Agriculture Technology of the Year: PhycoTerra FOODTECH INDUSTRY LEADERSHIP FoodTech AI Innovation Award: Turing Labs AGTECH INDUSTRY LEADERSHIP AgTech Innovation of the Year: Carl, Barchart AgTech Startup of the Year: AgZen Overall AgTech Company of the Year: Inari Overall AgTech Solution of the Year: Dimitra About AgTech Breakthrough Part of <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=sVcbkYeObR9D-ra1pCkE3j9PtNk_f3PF9P0OCebxuMxLgRmYzrgrA6-W7yuMVjzVO07Unxd7Aatt8C7Af_MKDP0vJYY-vXX0y9KzRSWPVYo=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">Tech Breakthrough</a>, a leading market intelligence and recognition platform for global technology innovation and leadership, the AgTech Breakthrough Awards program is devoted to honoring excellence in agricultural &amp; food technologies, services, companies and products around the world.
