Across the 11 most recent Fargo-area rounds, the largest disclosed amount is Anchor Ingredients’ $31M on 2022-01-12, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed round at Bushel’s $26M (2023-07-13). Most other disclosed figures cluster far lower, including several at or below $2M (Lilac Agriculture $2M on 2026-04-09; Chipp $50K on 2026-03-03; Wunup $100K on 2024-05-06; Zulafly $100K on 2023-05-15).
The list also shows dense temporal clustering: five rounds fall between 2023-07-11 and 2023-09-13 (Cios 2023-07-11, Bushel 2023-07-13, WalkWise 2023-07-19, BWR Innovations 2023-09-13, plus the adjacent 2022-01 edge). Sector-wise, agriculture/farming appears repeatedly (701x, Lilac Agriculture, Bushel), while stage labels are often not stated: 2 rounds are “undisclosed” by amount and 5 of 11 show “Series Unknown” classifications. Disclosed amounts span $50K to $31M, covering rounds from 2022-01-12 through the most recent 2026-06-02 (701x).

Frequently asked
What stands out as the largest disclosed round in Fargo here, and how extreme is it versus the rest?
Anchor Ingredients’ $31M (2022-01-12) is the largest disclosed amount in the table, staying close only to Bushel’s $26M (2023-07-13). Everything else is much lower, including $10M (701x, 2026-06-02), $2M (Lilac Agriculture, 2026-04-09), and several $100K-class rounds (Wunup 2024-05-06; Zulafly 2023-05-15).
Do the most recent rounds cluster in a narrow time window, or are they spread out?
The listing is spread across multiple years (2022-01-12 through 2026-06-02), but there is a tight mid-2023 cluster: five rounds land between 2023-05-15 and 2023-09-13, including Zulafly $100K (2023-05-15), Bushel $26M (2023-07-13), WalkWise $1M (2023-07-19), and BWR Innovations $380K (2023-09-13).
Which stages dominate the set, and how often are stage amounts or labels missing?
Stage labeling is frequently not specific: 5 of 11 entries use “Series Unknown,” and 2 entries show “undisclosed” amounts (Allegiance Group + Pursuant on 2025-11-12; Cios on 2023-07-11). Only a small subset has clearly stated early-stage labels like Seed (Lilac Agriculture $2M on 2026-04-09; Zulafly $100K on 2023-05-15) or Pre-Seed (Wunup $100K on 2024-05-06).
Is any sector over-represented compared with others in this Fargo-focused list?
Agriculture and Farming appears in 3 entries: 701x ($10M, 2026-06-02), Lilac Agriculture ($2M, 2026-04-09), and Bushel ($26M, 2023-07-13). Other single-appearance sectors include Health Care (WalkWise $1M on 2023-07-19) and Financial Services (Zulafly $100K on 2023-05-15).
Are there outliers by sector or by disclosed amount that warrant separate attention?
Yes—amount-wise, Anchor Ingredients’ $31M (2022-01-12) and Bushel’s $26M (2023-07-13) sit at the top while most disclosed rounds are at $10M or below (701x at $10M; Lilac Agriculture at $2M; Wunup and Zulafly at $100K). By sector, Agriculture and Farming also differs from the rest by spanning both the highest ($31M is Community/Lifestyle rather than agriculture) and multiple mid-to-large agriculture disclosures (Bushel $26M; 701x $10M), rather than remaining confined to the smallest categories.
