A.U.G. Signals Ltd receives funding for AI and remote sensing

The federal government is investing up to $1.65 million to A.U.G. Signals Ltd. through the AgriScience Program – Projects Component, under the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership.

With this support, the Toronto-based technology company will lead a three-year project to develop innovative AI-driven solutions for crop health monitoring and yield forecasting. A.U.G. Signals Ltd. will advance its own research and technology development to integrate satellite, drone, and field data, creating tools that help producers assess crop emergence, above-ground biomass, drought conditions, and yield predictions in real time.

As part of the project, A.U.G. Signals Ltd. will also work collaboratively with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada scientists on key research activities, such as collecting field data and validating AI models. Together, their work will help strengthen climate resilience on Canadian farms and support the transition to climate-smart agriculture.

The project will reinforce AUG’s leadership in developing smart and sustainable agriculture technologies says Dr. George Lampropoulos, president & CEO, A.U.G. Signals Ltd.
