Pivot Bio offers a sustainable alternative to synthetic nitrogen fertilizers for farmers in the United States. Their main product utilizes naturally occurring microbes to fix nitrogen in cereal crops, such as corn, through a process called biological nitrogen fixation. This process converts nitrogen from the air into a usable form for plants, reducing the reliance on synthetic fertilizers. The microbial products are applied directly to the crops, adhering to their roots and providing a consistent supply of nitrogen throughout the growing season. This approach not only boosts crop yields but also addresses environmental concerns linked to traditional fertilizers, such as leaching and denitrification. Pivot Bio differentiates itself by using advanced technologies like machine learning and computational modeling to enhance the effectiveness of its solutions. The company's goal is to support farmers in achieving higher yields sustainably while minimizing their environmental footprint.
