Reinke Manufacturing Co., is participating in a $30 million Series C financing round for CropX Technologies. The investment will be used to continue developing the CropX agronomic farm management system.

By combining farm data, real-time conditions, and agronomic knowledge, Reinke and CropX provide the grower with insights and advice for their agronomic operations.   

Chris Roth, Reinke president said, “Reinke is expanding the offerings to meet the increased demand of the customers. Using Reinke precision irrigation and the CropX agronomic farm management system, operations can be streamlined and monitored from anywhere.”

The CropX system is a total agronomic farm management tool. It helps monitor when and how much water to apply before the crops show signs of stress, the grower can continuously monitor salinity and nitrogen leaching to maximize nitrogen use, in addition to controlling costs with the reliable digital fungal disease management advisor. The CropX system also allows growers to turn animal waste into an asset for growing their pasture and crops, while minimizing runoff and drainage. The grower knows exactly what the crops need and when. The operations are controlled from the CropX app, which is accessible via Reinke’s ReinCloud app.

Approximately 70 percent of the world’s freshwater is used for food production.
