What AgriNomix does
AgriNomix is a US-based designer and manufacturer of automation equipment and integrated control systems for controlled environment agriculture, headquartered in Oberlin, USA and operating as a subsidiary of AdeptAg. Founded in 1994, the company builds material handling and production automation equipment—including conveyors, potting machines, seeders, and irrigation components—used by ornamental growers, produce growers, and nursery operators across North America. Its multi-brand portfolio spans AgriNomix (automation), Zwart (irrigation), and Plantech (controls), consolidated under the AdeptAg parent.
The company sells capital equipment, service, and aftermarket support to a customer base of more than 2,000 unique operators, with disclosed penetration of 90% of the Top 100 Ornamental Growers in North America and a cumulative installed base of more than 30,000 machines across 15,000+ acres. Go-to-market combines direct equipment sales with exclusive North American distribution arrangements for complementary technologies from FGM (Moving Gutter Systems), Hoogendoorn, and Priva, allowing AgriNomix to bundle climate, irrigation, and process control into multi-vendor greenhouse projects. Reference customers include Under Sun Acres II (pepper greenhouse) and Foliera Inc. (flood-floor production).
The current product roadmap is anchored by the AdeptAg+ software platform, which provides unified connected-equipment monitoring, intelligent material tracking, and analytics across the broader automation stack. Recent hardware launches include the Smart Boom Controller, extending coverage into boom irrigation management, and the HydraFiber Processing Unit, adding substrate-handling capability. The strategic emphasis is on converting a hardware OEM footprint into an integrated automation-and-software offering with deeper per-customer share and recurring revenue potential.
