Reinventing Crop Nutrition
Our mission is to accelerate the transition to a sustainable agri-food system through innovative crop input solutions that are climate-positive, non-polluting, and based on circular economies.
And the industry is taking notice. Together with Protein Industries Canada Supercluster and a consortium of companies we help Canadian farmers further improve their substantiality and reduce carbon emissions through the commercialization of a new micronutrient fertilizer. The investment by Protein Industries Canada was announced by the Honourable François-Philippe Champagne, Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry and the Honourable Marie-Claude Bibeau, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food.
Lucent Bio’s flagship technology—Soileos®—is a sustainable, non-polluting, climate-positive micronutrient fertilizer created from the upcycling of pea, lentil, and oat hulls – co-products from food processing. This approach makes a circular economy showcase, with crop residues becoming fertilizer that will be applied to the field to help grow the next crop. Made with patented technology, Soileos® is a bioavailable crop nutrition product where nutrients are only released under biological processes from the crops and the soil microbiome. The use of Soileos increases revenues for both farmers and food processors.
