Wheat: A complex puzzle we're excited to solveย ๐งฉ๐พ Wheat, a cornerstone of human civilization, faces unprecedented challenges. From the intensifying impacts of climate change to evolving consumer demands for taste, nutrition, and sustainability, this vital crop is under pressure. Factors like soil health, pests, diseases, and genetic limitations compound these challenges, impacting wheat quality and yield. Such changes cause inconsistency in wheat quality, which increases variation in baking performance. As a result, bakers are compelled to use more additives and isolated gluten protein to reduce this variation and produce a uniform product. We see this as an opportunity to drive innovation. By harnessing the power of AI through Mannaโข, we enhance the ability to trace the quality of baked goods at the grain level. This valuable insight helps millers and bakers reduce flour inconsistency and improve their baked products. We also assist millers in exploring alternatives to current grains by identifying high-performance wheat varieties with different specifications, such as varying protein levels. ๐ฒย Contact us to learn more! #Agtech #Agriculture #Foodinnovation #Bakingindustry #Wheat

Wheat prices are down now, but how can we prepare for the next market storm? โ๏ธ๐ต The recent decline in wheat prices is a welcome relief for many, but it's important to remember that these fluctuations can be volatile. The current low prices are largely due to a combination of factors, including a strong wheat crop in Russia and favorable weather conditions in Argentina. While lower prices are positive in the short term, we need to focus on long-term solutions to ensure food security. Simply reacting to market fluctuations isn't enough. Instead, we need to make a difference in how we source food and manage our supply chains. ๐ฉ๐ป๐ป๐ฏThis is where our AI-powered Mannaโข technology comes in! By predicting grain quality, Mannaโข helps millers and processors optimize their grain purchases, reducing logistics costs and waste. This can save hundreds of thousands of dollars while also ensuring a more consistent supply of high-quality wheat. ๐พ๐พ๐พ By investing in innovative solutions, we can build a more resilient food system that's less susceptible to price shocks.

Exciting news in the world of agriculture! Farmer's Business Network, Inc. and ADM have just launched Gradableยฎ, a joint venture set to revolutionize how we value sustainably produced grains. ๐พ๐ฑ๐ค This initiative resonates deeply with our mission. Gradable aims to create new standards that better reflect the true quality and environmental impact of grains. By documenting farmers' environmental footprints, this platform enables premium pricing for sustainable practices - a win for both farmers and end-users. It's inspiring to see industry leaders recognizing the crucial link between production quality and end-user needs - a principle we've long championed. Current grading systems often fall short in reflecting the actual quality demanded by end-users, and Gradable's approach could transform this landscape. We're hopeful this move will catalyze a broader rethinking of grain grading across the industry. The future lies in sophisticated systems based on end-user requirements, not simplified parameters of limited value.๐๐ Read more:๐ย https://lnkd.in/dNiQpU9z ๐ทImage credit: Farmer's Business Network, Inc. #Agtech #Sustainableagriculture #Wheat #Farming #Agriculture

Ever wondered if the wheat you're buying truly matches its label? ๐๐พWe're using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) to uncover surprising patterns in wheat categories. By analyzing wheat samples, we're creating a visual representation where different colors signify different wheat categories. While some grains align perfectly with their expected category, others tell a different story. Our analysis shows that while some wheat varieties clearly stand out, others surprisingly cluster together despite different labels. This means that the biochemical composition of the purchased grains often differs from what was expected, leading to inconsistencies in quality and performance. As an example, millers might be paying a premium for wheat that's functionally identical to a cheaper option! By accurately identifying wheat composition, we can help millers optimize their purchasing decisions and ensure product consistency. ๐ฏ #Wheat #NIRtechnology #Foodtech #Millinginnovation #Bakingindustry

Unlocking the secrets of plant-based quality. ๐ฌ๐ฉ๐ป๐ฌ Our journey began with optimizing the quality of peas and other grains for the plant-based protein industry, then expanded to wheat for the bakery sector. But we believe our Mannaโข technology can revolutionize the entire plant-based industry. Mannaโข enables precise quality definitions for grains and other crops, empowering us to predict flavor profiles, optimize growing conditions, and ensure consistent product quality from the ground up. Imagine applying this technology to coffee or cacao. We could address critical challenges such as deforestation, child labor, and inconsistent bean quality while delivering superior products. ๐ฑโ๐ซ Our AI platform is the key to unlocking the full potential of plant-based products. We're excited to explore new frontiers. Follow ๐ @Equinom for more on how we're pushing the boundaries of what's possible. #plantbased #coffee #agtech #foodtech #cocoa

๐After eight years of development, Mannaโข is now commercially available!๐กThe AI-powered solution is set to transform the plant-based protein industry, starting with yellow pea dry fractionation. What makes Mannaโข unique? For the first time, we're bridging the gap between biology and processability. Our system analyzes grain biochemical parameters to forecast optimal machinery settings, significantly enhancing processing efficiency and precision. But that's not all - Manna also grades and selects the best yellow pea varieties for processing, empowering our partners to make smarter grain purchasing decisions. We're seeing remarkable improvements in operational efficiency, with potential savings of $300,000 to $500,000 for every 10,000 metric tons of grains processed annually. ๐ฎ๐ฐThat's a game-changer for the industry! Initially available as a service, with plans to transition to a SaaS model, Mannaโข is already making waves in yellow pea processing. And we're not stopping there - we're gearing up to expand our system to other crops, including wheat. ๐ฑIf you're interested in partnering or learning more about how Mannaโข can optimize your operations, let's connect. Reach out to Itay Zemach or Avinoam Lerer to explore the possibilities. #Wheat #Peaprotein #Foodtech #Foodingredients #Plantbased

We're honored to be part of an exciting pilot project in Germany that's addressing key industry trends: regional sourcing, high protein content, and sustainability in plant-based foods.๐ฉ๐ช๐ซ ๐ค Farmers Jens Mattern and Marius Bischoff, in collaboration with GREENFORCE and BayWa AG, are field testing new Equinom pea varieties across 20-30 hectares. The goal? To identify pea varieties optimally suited for local agriculture and food processing. ๐ช While field peas aren't new to Germany, we're providing an exciting variety with a focus on higher protein yields. This Equinom pea has an impressive 30% protein content compared to traditional field peas, which typically contain 22-25% protein. The higher protein concentration means less processing effort and greater potential for diverse vegan food products. Importantly, our peas require no special cultivation techniques compared to standard field peas. ๐ Peas offer another valuable asset below ground: nitrogen-fixing nodule bacteria on their roots. This natural process reduces the need for nitrogen fertilizers, promoting more sustainable farming practices. Additionally, finding climate-resistant varieties is another key factor for the industry, and legumes like peas tick that box as well. Thank you to BayWa AG for sharing this exciting initiative.

We've developed an AI model that's set to transform how we evaluate wheat quality and predict baking performance.๐พ๐๐ฌ Based on a wealth of data that millers routinely collect - such as grain quality, dough properties - we uncovered connections to baking properties. By leveraging advanced AI algorithms, we've created a predictive model that can forecast baking performance based on this standard miller data. In essence, we're turning everyday data into powerful insights. This means better bread, more efficient processes, and potentially significant cost savings across the industry. ๐ฒ Interested in learning more or exploring how this could benefit your operations?
