Planet Labs expands contract with French digital farming company Abelio

Planet Labs (PL) PBC announced that it has signed an expansion with their partner Abelio, a French technology company offering smart farming solutions. Abelio leverages the Planet Insights Platform and the company’s PlanetScope satellite data to enhance their digital agriculture solutions. Through this expansion, Abelio will have access to agricultural data across France – nearly three times the amount of Planet data that it previously integrated into its solutions in 2023…”We are very excited by this expansion with Abelio. With increased access to our satellite data, they can continue to strengthen their models and offer broader locations for customers,” said Planet President Ashley Johnson. “With growing food demands and increased sustainability regulations, having advanced solutions for precision agriculture is critical for the 21st century.” ..”We have a farmer-first approach at Abelio, and that means that we also look to deliver the most timely and detailed data into our agronomic solutions,” said Samuel Bonnard, Head of International Business Development at Abelio. “Our work with Planet has let us smoothly analyze valuable near-real-time data streams and scale our solutions just over a few years.” Abelio has worked with Planet data and products since 2018, building their solutions with the Planet Insights Platform technology.
