Augmenta was created with a vision of transforming agriculture through automation and autonomy. Having the farmer always at the heart of any product or feature development, Augmenta has enabled farmers worldwide to make the most out of every acre in an environmentally sustainable way.

With this integration, Augmenta will amplify its impact, while CNH Industrial will provide a seamless offering of the deepest technology in its farm input automation vertical.

Strategic partners, united with the same purpose

Since 2018, Augmenta has been providing products and services around crop input management and farm analytics to farmers across many geographies, while also working with CNH Industrial and its subsidiary, Raven, as traditional business partners. This pairing was further enhanced after CNH Industrial became a minority strategic shareholder and joined Augmenta's board of directors in 2021. After two years of close partnerships at every level, both parties agreed that joining forces under CNH Industrial's ownership would significantly accelerate their vision and mission.

"We are extremely excited to become part of CNH Industrial and Raven, and continue building together deep technological solutions that enable a more sustainable future for farmers of all sizes, as well as the environment," noted George Varvarelis, co-founder and CEO of Augmenta. "Our beyond-state-of-the-art ag perception stack combined with CNH Industrial's high-quality ag equipment will give a material advantage to the farmers in their daily farming practices, resulting in increased efficiency, precision, and profitability."

CNH Industrial has acquired 100% of the shares of Augmenta Holding SAS for $110 million. Augmenta will integrate into Raven as part of the company's precision technology portfolio. Augmenta will retain its employees and strategically invest in its location in Athens, Greece as an innovation hub.
