Nurspray Biostimulants - Protecting agriculture against climate stress with breakthrough sustainable crop treatment

ended

Fyteko's Nurspray is a biostimulant that makes crops resilient to climate stress. Nurspray activates a plant's tolerance mechanism to drought, heat and salinity, boosting recovery and crop yield. It is non-toxic and compatible with agricultural methods. Field trials have shown yield increases of 12% to 53% over a broad range of crops and locations. Problem: Heat, drought and salinity are undermining global agricultural output by 50%, worth $100B p.a. Current agrochemicals are insufficient: there is no abiotic stress treatment product. Solution: Nurspray is the world’s first single-molecule biostimulant with a scientifically proven effect. It competes with other biostimulants which are mix/extracts/microorganisms with limited effect. Timing: The EU’s revised Directive on Fertilising Products (2019) will allow biostimulants to obtain CE marking in 2022. Progress: Fyteko has invented and patented Nurspray, produced demonstration batches at scale, proven effectiveness in 170+ tests, and won numerous awards. Trial contracts to treat fields in Latin American and Africa are already signed. Sales: End-users are farmers, reached through distributors, agrochemical partners and seed companies. Market: Agrochemicals are worth €5B annually. Biostimulants will disrupt this, as farmers are seeking non-chemical solutions for crop stress management. Project: Fyteko will improve its formulations; upscale its production process; conduct field trials in eight EU countries (data generation); secure CE Marking; and prepare for European market launch in 2022-2023.
