PlantZCare is an Italian AgTech startup and a spin-off of Politecnico di Torino, delivering an innovative plant-wearable IoT sensor for real-time, in-vivo crop health monitoring.
By combining multi-domain measurements with a novel, direct internal plant stem bio-impedance sensing technique within a single, integrated monitoring system, the technology enables early detection of biotic and abiotic stress well before visible symptoms appear.
PlantZCare’s low-power, low-cost solution works across both hard- and soft-stem crops, providing a holistic view of crop conditions and enabling growers and agri-food stakeholders to improve productivity, optimize resource use, reduce waste, and support more sustainable, plant-centered, data-driven farming systems.
