| ElectroHemp has entered the FoodShot Global contest! |
Have you heard about the 2018-2019 FoodShot Global event that will be promoting soil health to increase food safety?
ElectroHemp will be entering the process and system that organically cleans soil and water, better known as green remediation in the FoodShot’s first annual challenge — Innovating Soil 3.0.
ElectroHemp will be competing and in the running for up to $10 million in equity funding and $20 million in debt funding!!!
Rajiv Singh, co-chairman of FoodShot Global, wrote on Agfunder about the contest: a search for projects and ideas that utilize the latest in technology, science, and engineering to address the crisis of soil deterioration. In particular, he writes about how a diverse set of technologies can be brought to bear to improve the conditions of the world’s soils, from machinery and equipment to low-tech farming practices, to carbon sequestration tools.
