Aqua-Yield awarded in Next Gen Fertilizer Challenge

In response to a growing awareness that agricultural sustainability depends on more efficient production, mitigation of production inputs and stewardship of the land, the EPA and US Department of Agriculture recently co-sponsored a worldwide solicitation of new technologies recently available in the market, or near market-ready to dramatically improve efficiency in delivery of crop fertility in the production space. This new class of technologies are broadly termed 'Next-Gen' or 'high-efficiency' fertilizers. 

Aqua-Yield's robust R&D pipeline is always churning out new ideas and perspectives to help our growers achieve more gains with less inputs. This includes technologies optimized to carry critical nutrients into crop tissues, with little to no risk of bioaccumulation in planta, in the rhizosphere and entire soil profile. After a panel of independent scientific review from leading members of industry, academia and government, we are honored to announce an initial award and favorable response to our paradigm-shifting nanoliquid crop fertility technology. The whole Aqua-Yield team is thankful for the opportunity to share the promise of this technology with leading agricultural and ecological stakeholders as we continue to learn from- and apply natural resources to solve challenging, recalcitrant agronomic needs. We will work with these leaders in the months ahead to advance optimization of this revolutionary technology in preparation for market launch and use by our growers.
