From the ground up

ruumi is enabling farmers to restore global soil health.

ruumi’s technology and program are built by a passionate team of software developers, data scientists, researchers, and grazing experts. We are based in the UK, Germany, and Denmark.

Since 2020 ruumi has provided farmers with technology, know-how, and financial resources to future-proof their farms.

Our vision is to see a future where farming enriches the earth.

We have big ambitions. We want to make global food supply more planet-friendly, restore ecosystems, remove tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere — and create profitable farms while doing it. But we know none of this is possible without the soil and the farmers who care for it. We are rooted in the work of the present, but stay focused on the goal of a more abundant future.

What is ruumi?

ruumi enables farmers to restore and maintain soil heath on livestock pasture. This means  more productive farms with reduced inputs and lower emissions.

How does ruumi work?

To enable farmers to restore soil health, ruumi provides technology, know-how, and finance:
‍
Technology: our grazing app and soil sampling allows you to baseline your farm, implement changes and show evidence for the improvements you make over time.

Know-How: we build a soil improvement plan with you in order to make the transition to more sustainable processes as seamless as possible.

Finance: Get rewarded for adopting more sustainable practices: through subsidies, buyers with sustainability requirements, or through carbon credits.

How does ruumi’s technology work?

We use a range of technologies. Our grazing app uses data from multispectral satellites, machine learning and ground truth readings from you the farmer.For farmers who choose follow a soil improvement programme, use 60cm deep soil carbon samples (taken by our partners) and advanced carbon modelling.
