Pivot Bio Highlights U.S. Agricultural Efficiency and Market Reach in 2024 Impact Report
Pivot Bio’s 2024 Impact Report outlines the company’s product adoption across 34 states and 15 million acres.
The U.S. AgTech industry faced a significant funding downturn in 2024, reflecting broader investment challenges across the agricultural sector. Global AgTech funding dropped to $15.6 billion, marking a 49% year-over-year decline, with agtech companies in the USA seeing reduced deal counts and lower early-stage investment. Despite the overall slowdown, Q3 and Q4 2024 showed signs of recovery, with funding reaching $1.8 billion in Q4, an 8.9% increase from the previous quarter.
Investors have shifted focus toward late-stage startups and companies addressing food security, climate change, and automation. While early-stage funding remains tight, areas such as farm robotics, mechanization, and AI-driven solutions continue to attract capital. As the industry adapts to changing investment dynamics, AgTech remains a key driver of innovation in precision agriculture, controlled-environment farming, and sustainability-focused technologies.
