Swiss AgTech scale-up Ecorobotix raises €128 million in total to scale AI-driven sustainable farming

Yverdon-les-Bains-based Ecorobotix, an innovator in AI-powered Ultra-High Precision (UHP) spraying, has announced their €90 million Series D to transform sustainable agriculture with improved crop health and efficiency – this is combined with 2024’s Series C (€38 million) for a total of €128 million in funding.

The round was led by Highland Europe, with The European Circular Bioeconomy Fund (ECBF) and McWin Capital Partners (via McWin Food Tech Fund) also joining as new investors.

“These latest investment rounds have allowed us to accelerate our innovation, expand into new crop types, broaden our product range, and bring our advanced crop algorithms to market faster. Thanks to the trust of our investors, we are scaling a proven solution to help deliver better-quality food for the world,” said Dominique Mégret, CEO.

Ecorobotix’s Series D positions the Swiss AgTech scale-up at the upper end of 2025’s precision agriculture funding landscape. Compared to peers such as Saga Robotics (Norway, €9.5 million for autonomous field robots), and Messium (UK, €3.8 million for satellite-based crop analytics), Ecorobotix’s round stands out for both its scale and hardware intensity.

Within Europe’s 2025 agtech ecosystem, Ecorobotix emerges as a benchmark for capital deployment and technical ambition in the high-precision agriculture segment.

“Farmers today face rising costs, labour shortages, and pressure to reduce inputs while still producing more food. Our new innovation takes precision even further to help them meet those challenges,” added Mégret.

Founded in 2014, Ecorobotix’s mission is to transform agriculture through AI and its exclusive Plant-by-PlantTM technology. This technology identifies and treats each plant individually with precision using a spray footprint of just a few centimeters – allegedly reducing the use of crop protection products by up to 95% while maintaining treatment effectiveness and crop health.

For growers, the benefits are far-reaching: the safe use of non-selective products, lower input costs, compliance with increasingly strict regulations, and ultimately, higher yields.

With more than 25 crop algorithms already available, its flagship product ARA is reportedly the world’s most versatile Ultra-High Precision sprayer, capable of targeting both specific crops and different types of weeds.

The company is currently present in more than 20 countries across Europe, America, and Oceania.

Ecorobotix also acknowledges the support of its long-term partners such as 4FOX Ventures, AQTON, BASF Venture Capital, Capagro, Cibus Capital, Flexstone Partners, Fondation Domaine de Villette, Meritech, Stellar Impact, Swisscanto, Swisscom Ventures and Yara Growth Ventures.

EU-Startups has previously featured Ecorobotix in a 2018 sector roundup, “10 European agtech startups preparing us for the next green revolution,” and noted again in a 2023 “Weekly funding round-up (May 08–12)”
