Four Growers, a startup backed by Y Combinator, has successfully raised $9 million in a Series A funding round to develop robotic solutions aimed at addressing labor shortages in greenhouse agriculture. The company's flagship product, the GR-100, is designed to enhance efficiency in harvesting by providing faster picking capabilities, optimizing paths, and achieving a 98% accuracy rate in identifying ripe crops. This funding marks a significant milestone for the Pittsburgh-based company, which is leveraging robotics and artificial intelligence to innovate within the agricultural sector.
