Rabo Frontier Ventures and existing backer AgFunder contributed to a series A-plus round taking the farming networking platform developer's overall funding to $32m.

UK-based farming networking platform provider Wefarm secured $11m yesterday in a series A-plus round featuring media, data and investment firm AgFunder and Rabo Frontier Ventures, a strategic investment arm of financial services firm Rabobank.
