Tensorfield Agriculture was selected to present our herbicide-free thermal weeding prototype at the first TechCrunch Hardware Battlefield in Shenzhen China. We brought along our prototype: an automated precision sprayer applicable for all 80-inch beds, hitting weeds with 1/2-inch accuracy while leaving densely planted crops like kale, spring mix and spinach to flourish.
The Robotics Challenge was created by Agro Innovation Lab on behalf of BayWa and RWA, two of Europe’s biggest agricultural companies, to identify the most promising up-and-coming solutions in the areas of weed control and fruit and vegetable harvesting. Tensorfield Agriculture was selected as one of six finalists internationally, along with Agrointelli, Cerescon, Deepfield Robotics, …
One of the major technical milestones for us was to design a system that would reliably and accurately deposit the correct quantities of heated vegetable oil on demand – i.e. spraying the weeds while leaving keeper crops unharmed in the seedline. UC Davis research on thermal micro-dosing found that weeds within the seedline in processing …

Back in March 2019, we recorded a podcast with Dennis Donohue, Director of the Western Growers Center for Innovation and Technology. Tensorfield Agriculture is building agricultural machines with a focus on applications for specialty row crops in a post-herbicide world. CEO/Co-Founder Xiong Chang and CTO Cheehan Weereratne provide an inside look into how these autonomous …
Tensorfield now has a residency with the Western Growers Center for Innovation and Technology! To help our members do more with less, Western Growers launched the Western Growers Center for Innovation and Technology (WGCIT) in Salinas, CA. The Center was created to help identify industry priorities, discover technologies to address those priorities, set up testing, …
