Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam – December 26, 2025 – enfarm, a Vietnamese agritech company that leverages AI and IoT to optimize crop nutrition, announced today it has secured a seed funding round led by Touchstone Partners, with participation from Aiviet Venture and Conservation Vietnam. This investment will fuel enfarm's mission to revolutionize agriculture by empowering farmers with data-driven insights to boost yields while minimizing environmental impact.
enfarm addresses a critical agricultural challenge: inefficient fertilizer use. This practice wastes a staggering $120 billion USD annually, degrades one-third of global cropland, and contributes to 5% of greenhouse gas emissions. enfarm's innovative solution utilizes real-time data from soil sensors and smartphone applications. Their platform provides lab-grade precision on NPK readings, coupled with AI-powered actionable recommendations to significantly reduce fertilizer waste and optimize crop performance.
Recent field trials in Vietnam's Central Highlands coffee farms showcased the power of enfarm's technology. Farmers achieved a remarkable 30% reduction in fertilizer use, while simultaneously increasing crop yields by 30%. This success has led to rapid adoption by farmers in southern Vietnam, particularly coffee and durian growers.
Khanh Tran, Managing Partner at Touchstone Partners shared: “At Touchstone Partners, we believe that technology can transform the lives of farmers by addressing long-standing challenges in agriculture. By providing farmers with real-time soil data, enfarm’s solution allows farmers to optimize fertilizer use and reduce agricultural waste. By making agricultural production more efficient and sustainable on a larger scale, enfarm not only boosts productivity but also supports farmers in reducing costs and improving their livelihoods. This technology has the potential to make a lasting impact on agriculture in Vietnam and beyond.”
“We are thrilled to have the support of these leading funds to accelerate our mission of sustainable agriculture,” said Dzung Do Nguyen, Co-founder and CEO of enfarm. “This investment will enable us to scale operations, lower product costs, cover more corps and expand to other ASEAN markets."
Nguyen further emphasizes the urgency of enfarm's solution, stating, "Climate change is jeopardizing traditional farming methods. enfarm is positioned as a transformative solution for global agriculture, enabling low-carbon, high-yield farming practices to meet the 70% increase in food demand forecasted by the FAO by 2050.”
