TrueAlgae

ACCELERATING THE RATE OF CLIMATE INNOVATION BY:

Using algae metabolites to improve the soil microbiome, allowing for better nutrient uptake and healthier crops which are less dependent on synthetic fertilizers and reduce environmental impact.

Ag and Land Use Cohort 24-2 agriculture
PROBLEM FOCUS
Farmers are facing a soil crisis. The excessive chemical fertilizer usage has left the microbiome of soil out of balance and unable to meet the needs of crops. Key nutrients are trapped in these microbially depleted soils. A healthy soil microbiome is necessary for a sustainable food supply.
TECHNOLOGY SOLUTION
TrueAlgae is pioneering the use of metabolites in agriculture and beyond. Using its patented photobioreactors growing system, and algae as the factory, TrueAlgae can manipulate the types of metabolites produced through different algae combinations and environmental conditions. This creates a platform of metabolite mixtures which work with the soil microbiome to address specific challenges in agriculture and provide a healthier soil growing environment for crops.
