# 2025 Aeropod |
|
Aeropods are pressure-sensitive capsules that break up compacted, waterlogged soil without machinery, releasing oxygen and restoring drainage when most needed. Designed to biodegrade and enrich the soil with microbial nutrients, they support healthier crops while avoiding disruption to soil ecosystems. Customisable and climate-responsive, Aeropods offer farmers a low-risk, low-effort way to transition toward regenerative agriculture. By enabling natural soil recovery across all weather conditions, they help safeguard food production and future-proof vulnerable farmland
