PowerPollen And Oxbo Introduce Mechanized Pollination Technology
PowerPollen and Oxbo announced the launch of what they describe as the first mechanized pollination solution designed specifically for corn seed production. The system allows seed companies to directly purchase, integrate, and scale pollination technology in advance of the 2026 growing season.
The exclusive partnership combines PowerPollen’s second-generation pollination technology with Oxbo’s 5180 high-clearance power units. According to the companies, the offering enables in-field pollination control at commercial scale, a capability not previously available to seed producers.
Direct Ownership And Integration For Seed Companies
Under the new model, seed companies and their service providers can acquire complete pollination units rather than relying solely on contracted pollination services. The units are available exclusively to current PowerPollen license holders and are fully supported by Oxbo through sales, service, and technical assistance.
