CNH Industrial N.V. has recently strengthened its partnership between its accelerator for tech startups, AGXTEND, and Zasso Group, a global specialist in non-chemical weed and invasive plant management solutions using electrical power, by completing its acquisition of a minority stake.

With Zasso’s patented Electroherb™ technology, users will benefit from targeted, chemical-free weed control using an electrical current. This technology can also be employed in urban weed management situations, and is as effective and efficient as standard chemical herbicides, does not have to contend with growing developed plant chemical resistance and delivers social and environmental benefits – namely reducing the application of chemical weed killers and the associated environment impact.
