The funding round was led by Longwall Venture Partners to support research and technology scaling.
"This investment gives us a platform to really accelerate in 2020 and scale-up the delivery of our game-changing technology to farmers across the country.

The agtech business overfunded its original target on Seedrs to support product development and international growth.
"We’re really pleased with where the round is finishing up. Exceeding our initial target will allow us to continue to build our UK farmer base while also further developing and marketing our new revenue-driving services like payments, finance and haulage. With all of the uncertainty and tough market conditions out there we are here to help farmers realise upto 12 percentage points of efficiencies in their trading. We are adding more and more services to turn Hectare into a full service trading platform to ensure we are giving farmers all the tools they need to conduct their business in the most efficient way."

"IGS has tremendous potential to transform the way food is produced and supplied, and our investment – Ospraie’s first in the indoor agriculture market and in Scotland – is a testament to our strong belief in the success of IGS’ technology. The benefits of IGS’s Vertical Farming align well with our mission of helping farmers do more with less.
