The capital sits alongside non-dilutive funding from Denmark's EIFO, the European Space Agency, and Innovation Fund Denmark.
The headline figure for the technology, as PerPlant tells it, is a ninety per cent reduction in herbicide use for an average Danish farmer with around 200 hectares of land. Fertiliser use drops by thirty per cent.
The investor group, in materials circulated with the round, puts the saving at roughly DKK 269,000 a year per farm, enough to pay back the system inside a single growing season.
What is harder to dispute is the dataset. PerPlant says its cameras have already covered more than 200,000 hectares of European farmland, a footprint it describes as nine times the combined coverage of every agricultural drone in Denmark and the largest precision-farming dataset in the Nordics.
Where satellite imagery typically resolves at ten to thirty metres, PerPlant's on-tractor sensors resolve at two to ten centimetres. That is sharp enough, the company argues, to function as audit-grade documentation, the kind that banks, insurers and EU authorities can use to verify what was sprayed, where, and on what.
Documentation is the part that matters commercially. European farmers are under regulatory pressure to cut chemical use and to prove they have done it.
The EU's Farm to Fork strategy set a target of halving pesticide use by 2030, and subsidy regimes are increasingly tied to demonstrable environmental performance.
Precision-spraying companies have read the same room. Earlier this year, the Dutch startup BBLeap raised €5 million for a retrofittable nozzle-level system that takes a different technical route to the same outcome. The two are not yet direct competitors at scale, but they are aiming at the same problem.
PerPlant was founded in 2022 by chief executive Rasmus Emil Hansen and chief technology officer Sumod Nandanwar, who met through Antler's Nordic entrepreneur programme.
The underlying technology was originally developed at KTH in Stockholm, drawing on research into edge processing and sensor systems that allowed real-time inference without sending data to the cloud.
The company now has fifteen employees and runs commercial deployments across twelve countries, including Denmark, the UK, the Netherlands, Belgium, Norway, Poland, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Spain, Ireland and Chile.
Its existing backers are Antler and The Footprint Firm; this round adds Rosenmaj and Østergaard Nielsen as direct investors.
The next stop, according to the company, is the United States. Hansen, in a statement, framed PerPlant's offer in narrowly bureaucratic terms: “When our AI drives over the field, it documents the field variation, every single plant and groundwater-sensitive areas. This removes bureaucracy for the farmer and ensures that we can shut off the sprayer exactly over groundwater-sensitive areas with centimetre precision.”
That is a more modest pitch than the company's usual sustainability framing, and probably a more useful one in front of a North American farmer who has heard the EU policy argument before.
The technology, if the company's numbers hold up in the field, will sell on the paperwork it eliminates as much as on the chemicals it does not spray.
