In Massachusetts, Indigo Ag, Inc., a company dedicated to harnessing nature to help farmers sustainably feed the planet, announced the closing of its Series D funding round. With an additional $47 million raised since the announcement of a $156 million closing in September, the total round has reached $203 million.
“Indigo is working on solutions that address the massive problems of food security and the effects of agriculture on environmental and human health,” said David Perry, Indigo’s President and CEO. “Emerging technologies in the fields of microbiology and data sciences make solving these problems possible, and financing from firms such as ICD, Baillie Gifford, and the Alaska Permanent Fund ensures that Indigo will have the capital that we need to take on these challenges.”
The Series D round will support Indigo’s global commercial expansion, along with its continued investment in the plant microbiome and development of software and data tools.
