2026 Boson by Boson Motors

San Jose, California, USA

Boson is an electric, modular work platform built for growers who need capability without complexity. Boson delivers the strength of a one-ton truck with the intelligence and flexibility of modern electric power. At its core is a rugged, proven electric base that hauls, tows, and scouts right out of the box. Growers can add exactly what they need: attachments for spraying, material movement, or autonomy. Every module bolts on in minutes, transforming the same base into a new tool without downtime or special equipment.

Two high-torque electric motors put a ton of force to the ground, handling steep terrain and heavy loads while remaining quiet, clean, and nearly maintenance-free. Independent suspension and a balanced design ensure stability and a smooth ride. Optional onboard power allows tools or sensors to run directly from the vehicle, eliminating the need for generators or extra fuel. Boson is a grower-first design: tough enough to replace multiple machines, smart enough to evolve.

būmigro Mulch Film by būmi

Herber City, Utah, USA

būmigro™ Mulch Film is a microbe-edible, durable, and farm-ready mulch film made from upcycled agricultural biomass. It delivers the same strength, flexibility, and performance as traditional plastic mulch—retaining moisture, suppressing weeds, and warming soil—but breaks down naturally after use.

Customizable to when the season ends, the film is then simply tilled into the soil, where it’s consumed by microorganisms and converted into organic matter, water, and carbon dioxide—leaving behind no plastic, no toxins, and no waste.
