Ag Tech

Climate change is driving a transformative pivot in agriculture towards high-tech soilless greenhouses. These drastically reduce water use and emissions while significantly increasing yields. However, like humans need our gut microbiome, plants rely on the soil microbiome. This is missing in soilless agriculture, leading to reduced plant health and yield. Concert Bio addresses this by giving growers all the tools they need to create and manage an optimal microbiome in their system. Their proprietary platform gives growers unprecedented insights into their existing microbiome and uses that date to identify novel plant-beneficial microbes.

Number 8 bio is a synthetic biology company engineering microbes to eliminate agricultural greenhouse gas emissions. Our team of synthetic biologists is developing innovative microbial solutions capable of reducing ruminant methane emissions, saving money for our farmers, and saving our climate.
