According to Orange Corners, Iraqi agricultural technology company Al Jabal Agriculture has secured a six-figure investment from Iraqi investors and strategic business partners to expand its smart farming operations.
Founded in late 2022 by Mohammed Nabeel Al-Ruwaishdi, a remote sensing specialist, the company provides satellite monitoring, GIS technologies, artificial intelligence, and agricultural analytics to help farmers improve productivity and reduce waste.
The company currently manages and monitors thousands of dunams across Iraq, with plans to exceed 100,000 dunams under management in the coming year. Its solutions have contributed to productivity increases of more than 25% for several clients, while helping reduce unnecessary agricultural spending valued at more than IQD 600 million ($458,000).
The investment will support expansion of the company's technical infrastructure, development of AI-powered agricultural systems, and growth into additional farming regions.
Al Jabal Agriculture participated in Orange Corners Baghdad Cohort 10 and is among the top four startups in Track 2 of the Orange Corners Innovation Fund (OCIF) Iraq programme, implemented by Iraq Venture Partners (IVP).
Hady El Samra, Head of Investments & Programs at Iraq Venture Partners, said the company's growth and ability to attract private investment reflects both the strength of its execution and the increasing maturity of Iraq's startup ecosystem.
