Lightning-as-a-service for agriculture

Darryl Lyons, co-founder and Chief Rainmaker at Rainstick, joins the show to dive into advancements in AgTech and how Rainstick is using bioelectricity to enhance agricultural productivity. They discuss how Rainstick mimics natural thunderstorms to create electric fields and frequencies that promote plant growth, challenges and breakthroughs in their research, and their participation in the AWS Compute for Climate Fellowship.

Episode notes:

Rainstick uses electricity to mimic the natural effects of lightning to grow crops bigger, faster, and more sustainably.
