Qarbotech secures USD 700,000 to improve agricultural productivity

The Malaysia-based agritech startup has announced that it has secured a total of USD 700,000 in seed funding and grants.

Qarbotech will allocate the newly raised funds toward R&D and the expansion of its manufacturing facility. It is aiming to produce up to 50 times its current capacity to better serve farmers and growers in new markets across Southeast Asia.

“Agriculture is an industry that’s ripe for investments. […] Qarbotech’s technology has exciting potential to solve the global food security challenge of the world’s growing population, of which about 30% do not have food security,” said Khailee Ng, managing partner at 500 Global.
