BioPrime raises $6 million from Belgium’s Edaphon, others

The funds will be used to advance research in crop protection, with a focus on co-developing new biofungicides and bioinsecticides. Founded in 2016 by Diwan, Amit Shinde and Shekhar Bhosale, the Pune-based company develops biologicals using small trigger molecules that metabolically reprogramme plants to enhance climate resilience, lower carbon footprint, restore soil health and improve yields.
