Suind, an agricultural technology startup, secures Rs 5 crore in seed funding, spearheaded by Sunicon Ventures with contributions from Zetta Farms and several angel investors. The funding will fuel technological innovations, scale up Suind's AI-powered crop protection platform, and expand its market presence in India and Europe.

Established in 2020 by Kunal Shrivastava and Kevin Kleber, Suind specializes in drone technology for agriculture, offering real-time crop monitoring and treatment solutions. The company aims to revolutionize crop protection by integrating drones, computer vision, and data analytics. Headquartered in Bengaluru and Zurich, Suind distinguishes itself by creating low-power vision-based AI tailored for drones capable of autonomous operations in challenging plantation landscapes like tea estates, rubber plantations, and fruit orchards.

The agricultural technology industry has witnessed growing interest, with companies like Aarav Unmanned Systems, BharatRohan, Dhaksha Unmanned Systems, and DroneAcharya Aerial making significant strides in the sector. Suind's recent funding infusion positions the startup to advance its innovative solutions within the ever-evolving agricultural technology domain.
