About
Aurorevo is leveraging natural biodiversity to develop new and reinvigorated novel crops that use water more efficiently, reduce the need for inputs, and are adapted to survive in the climates of the future.
Currently the entire world relies on only 174 commercially grown crops with very limited internal genetic diversity. But there are more than 30,000 species that we know can provide food, and the vast majority have never been domesticated and have been ignored by agricultural researchers up until now. We find new opportunities by exploring this natural biodiversity.
