Unlocking the full
potential of seeds

About

From spark to seed, a world that grows smarter

Inari was born from a simple question: What if we can revolutionize agriculture by applying the breakthroughs already transforming human health to seeds? Today, our AI-enabled SEEDesign™ Platform is the industry’s most sophisticated performance accelerator, integrating the latest advances in genomics, artificial intelligence, and gene editing to accelerate breeding. By delivering high-impact, high-value solutions that push broadacre crops forward, we’re working to create tangible new value for farmers while enhancing food security and helping to protect natural resources. 

Led and supported by noted visionaries from within agriculture and beyond, Inari fosters an intentional environment of constant learning and discovery. Our three global sites work in unison to support an industry built on relationships, creating benefits that can be realized across the value chain and into local communities. 

By bringing unprecedented speed and precision to plant breeding with advanced technology delivered at scale, Inari is creating intelligent designs that unlock the full potential of seed.
