Israel’s Haskelberg Nurseries has entered into a joint venture agreement with UK-based ag-tech company Yellow Brick AgTech (YB AgTech) to create bespoke data-collecting software for its avocado rootstocks brand, Canacado.
The project marks the first phase of a long-term partnership between YB AgTech and Haskelberg Nurseries through the creation of new 50/50 joint venture company Haskelberg Advanced Technologies.
