We tend to think of the seasons as fixed in time. But when it comes to pasture management, the duration of each vital spring growth period is determined not only by the calendar but by the quality of your decisions. Pushing that seasonal curve forward to help farmers optimize their grazing pasture is the ultimate goal of Pasture.io , an automated decision support platform initially developed for CEO Ollie Roberts’ family dairy farm.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
