- Type

- Format
- Structured and export-ready: CSV, Excel and PDF per-sample lab reports keyed to field and zone, plus geospatial layers (Veris EC, SoilOptix, drone RGB, boundary shapefiles), prescription files in equipment-compatible formats, and combined layers spanning yield, elevation, imagery, soil and application history. Already standardised across the acquired labs — the hard part of an ag-data deal is done.
- Volume
- Disclosed volumes: 355,866 soil fertility samples collected in a single reported season (up 24% from 268,800), of which 53,204 were analysed in the US and 125,201 in Canada; the A&L Canada business alone was acquired on the basis of processing over 435,000 soil samples per year; peak lab throughput reported above 10,000 samples per day. Each sample carries a full analyte panel, so the analyte-observation count is two to three orders of magnitude above the sample count — realistically tens of millions of standardised soil measurements, plus 500,000+ acres sampled annually.
- Users
- est. low thousands of business accounts — ag retail and dealer locations plus grower and enterprise clients (bounded by the disclosed footprint: sampling over 500,000 acres per year across 19 US states and 7 Canadian provinces with 30+ field sampling technicians, four laboratories and an ag-retailer distribution channel)

- Growth
- Mixed — operationally growing but financially strained. Sample volumes rose 24% year over year, two US enterprise contracts were signed adding roughly 100,000 fertility samples and doubling Iowa lab volume, and PFAS and soil-health lines were newly launched. Against that, FY2024 filings record a 6.3% revenue decline, negative adjusted EBITDA, a $43.1M goodwill impairment tied to the A&L Canada lab business, and a securities-compliance matter under provincial review. Expanding dataset, retrenching balance sheet.
- Launched
- 2016 for the Deveron entity (originally Deveron UAS Corp., drone data collection, renamed Deveron Corp. in 2020 and listed on the TSX Venture Exchange in September 2020) — but the soil-data asset itself is far older, since the acquired labs market over 50 years of soil analysis experience and the collection network was built out from 2020-2022.
