Biographica raised $9.5 million in seed funding to scale its AI crop-design platform and launched a partnership with BASF. Their multi-modal machine learning identifies gene-editing targets 12x faster than traditional methods by uncovering causal genetic links. This lab-in-the-loop approach mirrors drug discovery, significantly shortening development for climate-resilient crops. Agriculture is transitioning into a predictive and programmable biological system. 🧬🌾
