Bilberry, now part of PTx Trimble, is an agricultural technology company focused on sustainable farming through artificial intelligence. Their core product is an intelligent spot spraying system that dramatically reduces herbicide usage (by up to 98%) by targeting weeds at the plant level rather than broadcasting across entire fields. This AI-powered system uses cameras and embedded computers to scan, detect, and spray weeds in real-time, protecting crops and managing herbicide resistance. Bilberry's solution offers significant cost savings for farmers, promotes environmental sustainability, and improves crop quality. The company was founded in 2016 and was acquired by Trimble in 2022. Their technology is applicable to both Green-on-Brown and Green-on-Green applications.
