Founded in 2020, YASAI is growing food for a better future by revolutionizing agriculture. Our modern farming techniques allow us to grow more with less, combining the benefits of the best local farms with advances made possible by technology to grow products you can feel good about eating. YASAI’s farms use AI, computer vision systems, Internet of Things (IoT), automation technology, and machine learning to monitor plants and all the variables that drive their growth 24/7/365. Because we control the entire process from seed to store, we use zero pesticides, 95% less water, and are 200X more productive on the same footprint of land compared to traditional agriculture.
