Azaneo was born from countless conversations with farmers across Australia and around the world, each one sharing the same challenge: their toolbox for controlling weeds keeps shrinking.
For decades, herbicides have been the only truly scalable solution, but the core technology hasn’t changed in over 60 years. With major advances in power electronics and a growing urgency for more sustainable, cost-effective weed control, we saw an opportunity to do things differently.
Azaneo uses electroporation — a proven technology used in medicine and food processing —to control weeds in the field.
A precisely controlled electrical pulse triggers a simple process:
A controlled electrical pulse is delivered to the weed.
Microscopic pores form in the plant’s cell membranes, disrupting normal cell function.
The damage is irreversible, causing the plant to die.
High-voltage pulse generation for reliable, energy-efficient weed elimination.
Optimised electrodes for targeted weed control in any crop.
Proprietary control algorithms that deliver the fastest and most efficient treatments, tailored to any weed in any environment.
