In 2025, agriculture biotech startup companies received about *** billion U.S. dollars in funding. This was a slight decline from the previous year's funding of 1.6 billion U.S. dollars, and less than half of the investment value received in 2022. The source defines the segment as on-farm input for crops and animals, including genetics, microbiome, breeding, and health. Some of the notable deals in 2025 involved the companies Inari, Abiochem Biotechnology, and Nitricity.
The decline in Ag Biotech funding was in line with the general decline in agrifoodtech investment in recent years. Nevertheless, ag biotech is one of the biggest agrifoodtech investment segments.Â
