Treefera launches Agricultural Risk Intelligence and Credit Risk Intelligence for ag lenders and ag tech companies. By GlobeNewswire July 15, 2026 Field-level evidence on crop stress and farm credit risk, delivered in near real time, before official data is published LONDON, July 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Treefera, the AI-native first-mile intelligence platform for agricultural and soft commodities, today launched two new products in its Risk Intelligence line: Agricultural Risk Intelligence, for commercial seed and crop science companies, and Agricultural Credit Risk Intelligence, for agricultural lenders. The timing is not incidental. A strengthening El Niño is reshaping growing conditions across major agricultural regions, tightening the decisions both groups have to make. Both products address the same underlying problem. Agribusinesses commit variety volumes and geographies seasons ahead of harvest and lenders carry climate exposure across entire loan books. Yet the data they rely on arrives too late and covers areas too large to be useful. It is compiled from surveys completed after conditions have resolved and averaged across regions too broad to reflect the farm-level variation that actually determines risk. Treefera closes that gap by applying advanced AI and scientific crop models to continuous satellite observation, delivering crop-specific evidence at field scale - in near real time and ahead of official sources. Agricultural Risk Intelligence: Field-level Crop Stress Intelligence Across the Growing Season Agricultural Risk Intelligence gives commercial seed and crop science companies clear, calibrated evidence of crop stress for every crop and location across the full growing season, from planning before planting to checking results after harvest. Crucially, it is weighted to each crop's biological calendar, so stress is scored by its real consequence for yield: for example, heat at pollination (when it does the most damage to corn) is not treated the same as heat during early growth. For seed companies, that means placing the right varieties in the right geographies based on where the season is heading, not where it has been, with enough lead time to still act. It is live today for corn across Kenya, Tanzania and Zambia, three of the most consequential markets for smallholder seed allocation, with US Midwest corn and soybean in development. Agricultural Credit Risk Intelligence: Near Real-Time Evidence for Farm Credit Decisions Agricultural Credit Risk Intelligence gives lenders field-level evidence on borrowers across the full lending lifecycle, from origination through renewal to ongoing monitoring, that simply does not already exist in credit files or self-reported data. It surfaces farm-level yield history and explains why each forecast looks the way it does, in plain terms that a credit committee and a regulator can review and clearly take action on. For lenders, that means assessing and monitoring crop risk before it shows up in the credit file, at the farm scale where the loan is actually secured, rather than relying on the county-level averages most credit tools use today. The product is live with US financial institutions and expanding internationally with global banks. Executive Quote "Ag lenders and commercial seed companies have always made it a priority to understand crop risk. What changes now is precision. Not just whether a region is under stress, but what a specific weather event will do to a specific crop at the exact moment in its growing cycle. For lenders, that's evidence before it reaches the credit file. For commercial seed companies, it's placing the right varieties where the season is going." - Jonathan Horn, CEO and Founder, Treefera About Treefera Treefera is the AI-native first-mile intelligence platform focused on global agricultural and soft commodities. Through proprietary science and advanced AI, it synthesizes satellite imagery, environmental signals and field-level data into Market, Risk and Environmental Intelligence at plot resolution and in near real time.

Cytora and Treefera partner to bring real-time, first-mile commodity intelligence to commercial insurance workflows. New collaboration integrates Treefera's plot-level data on risk related to nature based assets - such as land performance, weather & climate events into Cytora's risk processing platform to enhance risk pricing and underwriting precision. Cytora, the digital risk processing platform, has announced a new strategic partnership with Treefera, an AI-powered first-mile intelligence platform, to incorporate granular agricultural and nature-based asset data into the Cytora platform. The collaboration will allow commercial insurers to seamlessly access Treefera's unique portfolio of intelligence within Cytora's ingestion and digitization workflows. Through this integration, underwriters will immediately be able to enrich their risk submissions with near real-time signals from Treefera, including specific datasets on soil moisture, water stress, crop health, and land-use change. By bringing these precise, plot-level insights directly into the Cytora platform, insurers no longer must rely on static assumptions or regional proxies. Instead, they can accurately quantify how weather and climate volatility impact land performance and agricultural production, enabling precise risk pricing and capital allocation across commodities, locations, and time horizons. The collaboration with Treefera is the latest integration partnership Cytora has agreed upon as the insurtech seeks to build one of the world's most comprehensive data ecosystems for insurers. It also follows a period of significant growth for Cytora, including a major collaboration with Chubb, and the continuous enhancement of its platform, which leverages agentic AI to bring a new level of performance, efficiency, and explainability to risk assessment and underwriting processes. Juan de Castro, COO at Cytora, said: "Environmental and climate volatility are increasingly critical factors in commercial underwriting. Through our partnership with Treefera, we are making it easier for insurers to embed highly granular, first-mile intelligence directly into their workflows. This empowers underwriters to make smarter, faster pricing and risk selection decisions with unparalleled visibility into plot-level risks." Caroline Grey, CRO and Co-Founder at Treefera, said: "Soft and agricultural commodities underpin half of the global economy, yet there is often a lack of visibility into supply conditions and risks at the point of origin. By integrating our proprietary AI and financial-grade risk analysis into Cytora's advanced platform, we are helping insurers replace regional proxies with plot-level insight in near real-time so they can accurately price risk and build resilience in an increasingly volatile world."
