Revolutionizing Agriculture with Light Spectrum Science – Opti-Harvest

Oct 15, 2025

In this New to The Street interview, Jonathan Destler, Founder & CEO of Opti-Harvest, explains how his company uses light manipulation to supercharge crop growth while lowering input costs. Unlike traditional indoor light tech, Opti-Harvest applies proven light science outdoors — helping specialty crop growers like avocado, grape, citrus, and blueberry farmers dramatically boost yield and root system efficiency.

Founded in 2016, the company spent six years validating its climate-smart tools in collaboration with top U.S. growers. The results? 20–40{d450b60efc35a2e17361b5d57bc194208ff1ac62c46bd45a026f4271e6a4dcc4} higher yields, lower labor and water costs, and less need for pesticides — all backed by a robust U.S. manufacturing infrastructure and a global patent portfolio.

Now entering full commercialization with 30+ customers and a Reg A+ offering in progress, Opti-Harvest is poised for aggressive growth in California, Mexico, South America, and beyond. With potential government incentives on the horizon, this company stands at the forefront of sustainable ag innovation.
