York-based AgriSound said it is close to launching a fully automated acoustic landscape monitoring system.
The technology is being developed to address critical challenges, including the need for real-time ecological data amidst growing demand for biodiversity protection.
With a shortage of qualified ecologists and fragmented ecological data, businesses are increasingly struggling to meet regulatory demands.
James Theobald, Chair of Crop Innovations, said: "We look forward to supporting AgriSound in shaping the future of environmental monitoring."
