RootWave
Precision weed control with electricity
RootWave develops and manufactures machines that kill weeds using high-frequency electricity. By applying a high-voltage alternating current between two electrodes, the system causes the natural resistance of the plant to convert electrical energy into heat, effectively boiling the weed from the inside out — including its roots. The technology is modular, adaptable to various crop types, and designed for integration with existing farm equipment.
Innovative solutions for today’s weed management challenges
As weed management becomes increasingly complex and regulated, RootWave provides farmers with a reliable, cost-effective, and environmentally responsible path forward. Their solution provides lasting control without chemicals or soil disruption.
RootWave’s first machine is already in commercial use for vine and tree crops, with expansion underway into vegetable and broad-acre row crops.
