Modern agriculture is moving towards reducing its harmful impact on the environment, as traditional pest control methods often negatively affect pollinators and other important insects in the ecosystem. This is why environmentally friendly solutions are becoming the foundation for sustainable agribusiness development worldwide. On September 22, DroneUA and Mosqitter presented BEETLESS, a joint innovative AgTech startup, at FIRA USA 2024, the world's leading agricultural robotics exhibition in California.
The startup, founded by Ukrainian women who have combined the extensive experience of two leading Ukrainian companies, will revolutionize pest control by protecting plants without chemicals, thereby eliminating environmental risks.
BEETLESS's mission is to eliminate pests while preserving biodiversity and protecting the natural ecosystem from human interference. In an era when traditional pesticides are harmful to pollinators, BEETLESS offers a smart, innovative solution that helps farmers around the world grow sustainably and profitably.
The device's advanced design allows for the control of harmful insects while protecting pollinators such as bees, ensuring productivity and ecosystem health. Its built-in scalability enables BEETLESS to protect farms of all sizes, redefining what is possible in organic agriculture.
DroneUA is grateful to the FIRA organizers for providing a platform to present the AgTech startup BEETLESS, to the Consul General of Ukraine in San Francisco, Dmytro Kushneruk, for supporting the initiative, and to all guests and media for their interest in innovations that effectively showcase Ukraine's presence on the global technology scene.
