MISSION

Building Foundational Infrastructure for Agriculture’s Next Era.

The U.S. and our allies face critical challenges that threaten food production, economic growth, and national security.

F3i was founded in the heart of California to build and scale solutions that strengthen our most vital supply chain.

Strengthening Agricultural Security

Agriculture is designated as critical infrastructure, but lacks the strategic redundancy and long-term planning of other critical sectors resulting in fragile supply chains, slow recovery from disruption, and limited innovation at scale.

F3i addresses this gap through new investment models, workforce pathways, and commercialization programs that strengthen rural economies and protect critical agricultural assets.

Reinvesting in Rural Economies

F3i is headquartered in California’s Central Valley, the world’s largest food producing region and a global proving ground for large-scale agricultural innovation. We work with partners across the agriculture value chain to develop scalable solutions and rebuild rural industries.

Partnering for Impact

Alongside industry partners, government leaders, and researchers from the University of California at Merced, UC Agriculture and Natural Resources, and California State University Fresno, F3 Innovate serves as a nexus for new technologies and advanced farming practices.
