Biofertilizer industry growth projectionsSorry, don't mean to spam, but found this interesting. https://www.ctvnews.ca/climate-and-environment/farmers-test-microbes-to-nourish-crops-as-climate-pressure-grows-costs-rise-1.5766361 Canada wants to cut fertilizer emissions by 2030, while the European Union aims to reduce fertilizer usage. Investment bank Rabobank sees the US$3 billion biostimulants industry growing by 12%-15% annually over the next five years. Global investments in crop biostimulant and control products more than doubled in 2021 from the previous year, to US$777 million, according to preliminary data from venture capital firm AgFunder. But microbial fertilizers are largely unregulated, with few studies on how effective they are at boosting crop yields. Only a handful of U.S. states require companies to supply data on the products' efficacy. The European Union will impose its first efficacy requirement for biostimulants in July 2022, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has issued draft guidance for public review. (Verde already partnered with leading universities in studying efficacy of microbes.)
