🌟 Innovation & Excellence Award for Agriculture Chemical Manufacturer of the Year! 🌟 We are thrilled to share that our approach to crop stimulation has been recognized with another prestigious accolade! 🎉 Traditional biostimulants, extracts from algae, plants, or organic waste, typically deliver modest yield boosts of 2-5% for farmers. Using an invention by University of Oxford and Rothamsted Research, our scientists are redefining what’s possible by leveraging cutting-edge science. Our innovative single-molecule formulations, with active ingredients inspired by natural plant molecules, have demonstrated remarkable potential to increase wheat yields by up to 22%! This isn’t just an improvement; it’s a leap forward in ensuring global food security. 🚀 With the global demand for biostimulants soaring, we’re eager to partner with go-to-market collaborators to bring our groundbreaking solutions to farmers worldwide. If you share our passion, connect with our Business Development Director, Bianca Forte.

🌱 Exciting New Collaboration! 🌱 Thrilled to be partnering with Fera Science Ltd., ADAS, and the British Tomato Growers' Association to explore a new application for our T6P #biostimulant! Our goal? To enhance resilience against #climatechange while reducing the #carbonfootprint of UK food production. 🍅 The Challenge: Tomato plants thrive when day/night temperatures stay within 21°C-29.5°C and 18.5°C-21°C, respectively. Slight increases beyond these ranges can severely affect fruit set and yield. Temperatures are exceeding these bounds more frequently and for longer. 🔬 The Solution: We’re testing whether the science-based #technology we've licensed from @Rothamsted Research and @Oxford University can help tomato plants better withstand heat stress. This could be a game-changer to ensure the long-term viability of production. 👩🌾 Calling UK tomato growers: We value your expertise and insights! Follow our page for upcoming announcements on how you can contribute to this exciting project. Your input will be crucial in helping us shape the future of sustainable tomato production in the UK.

🌟 Exciting News 🌟 AgriBusiness Review has named us one of the TOP 5 UK BIOSTIMULANTS VENTURE TO WATCH IN 2024! 🎉 This recognition is based on our potential to revolutionize the industry with precision formulations based on single active ingredients that mimic powerful plant molecules. With a B2B business model, we are eager to collaborate with go-to-market channels. If that is you, get in touch with our Business Development Director Bianca Forte. https://lnkd.in/efhUAVA8

💭The future of agriculture hinges on effective regulation. As industry leaders call for clear and supportive policies, the message from our members is clear: regulatory frameworks must evolve to foster innovation while ensuring safety and efficacy. Unfortunately, the regulatory environment has not kept pace with technological advancements, and a collaborative approach is needed to fast-track these innovations. 🌾SugaROx combines synthetic chemistry and biology that can boost crop yields by 22%. Their sugar-based biostimulant improves plant efficiency, potentially reducing carbon emissions - by 11% per loaf of bread. They advocate for regulatory frameworks that streamline biostimulant registration to accelerate adoption and support additional innovations in their pipeline.

However, stringent EU and UK regulations pose challenges due to the complexity and lengthy approval processes for biological products compared to conventional pesticides. They stress the need for regulatory reform and enhanced education on Integrated Pest Management to foster wider adoption.

Their Actiphage diagnostic for bovine TB has shown promising results in managing the disease effectively, but regulatory hurdles hinder widespread adoption. They seek a supportive regulatory environment to expand their impact and apply insights from human TB diagnostics back to agricultural innovations. These organisations highlight critical areas where regulatory advancements are needed to unleash the full potential of agricultural technologies in addressing global challenges. Agri-TechE’s “Back to the Future” project aims to identify and understand the impacts and shared challenges facing the industry. By gathering insights from our diverse global membership, we hope to identify some universal calls to arms, and to shape a clearer vision of what lies ahead. #Agriculture #AgriTech #Innovation #Regulation #Biostimulants #IntegratedPestManagement #AnimalHealth

The world comes here! It was a pleasure to work with Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship in hosting SugaROx on a tour of Iowa's outstanding ag and startup ecosystem. The UK-based scaleup develops biostimulants to help farmers optimize productivity and improve the resilience of crop systems. Thank you to the many companies and individuals who made this showcase of Iowa such a success, including Iowa Corn, Corteva Agriscience, BioConnect Iowa, Iowa Economic Development Authority, Greater Des Moines Partnership, InnoVenture Iowa, Iowa State University Research Park, Iowa Soybean Association and Stine Seed Company. #WorldComesHere #WhyIowa #agtech #startup #biostimulants
