Lavoro, Brazil's largest agricultural inputs retailer, announced today a multi-year partnership with soil metagenomics and digital agronomy leader Pattern Ag to offer farmers in Brazil a groundbreaking service that will predict crop risks and nutrient deficiencies and offer specific product recommendations through a personalized software experience. As Brazil's largest agricultural inputs retailer and a trusted advisor to over 53,000 farmers through its footprint of over 190 retail stores, Lavoro is positioned to help bring this advantaged technology service offering to farmers across the country. This strategic partnership expands Lavoro's portfolio of digital tools and services for Brazilian farmers, a key growth driver for the company. With Pattern Ag, Lavoro plans to offer clients a digital agronomy platform that will map their fields, analyze their agronomy data, leverage applied metagenomics sequencing and soil chemistry analysis, and provide specific production application recommendations to clients, helping farmers improve yields, while minimizing their costs, land, water, and carbon footprint. Lavoro announced in September its intent to become the first US-listed pure-play Latin American agricultural inputs retailer through a business combination with The Production Board's ("TPB") Special Purpose Acquisition Company, TPB Acquisition Corporation I ("TPB Acquisition Corp") (NASDAQ:TPBA).
