Full Description
The company's products can be divided into the following categories:

● Microbiological products for agriculture
● Microbiological products for breeders (seed producers)
● Microbiological products for industry and wastewater treatment
● Microbiological products for animal husbandry
● Adjuvants for agriculture
● Biostimulants and micronutrient fertilizers

A Lithuanian company has the largest privately-owned research center for adjuvants and soil microbes in Northern Europe. Currently, the company's products are available in over 20 markets in the Baltics, Central and Southern Europe, Central Asia, and Africa.
Advantages and Innovations
Notable cooperation subjects:

1) Soil improvement

In intensively used soils, the amount of beneficial microorganisms may be insufficient and in order to restore the biological balance of the soil, they must be introduced into the soil in a purposeful and systematic manner, thereby increasing the efficiency of the use of existing and additionally introduced macro and micro elements into the soil.
The products manufactured by Lithuanian company are a powdered fraction, a fully stabilized multicomponent composition of microorganisms, consisting of spore-forming microorganisms of the Bacillus and Paenibacillus families and other components important for improving the soil composition.
This composition can effectively reduce the usage of mineral fertilizers and improve soil fertility. There are multiple studies and trials done proving the product efficacy and scalability.

2) Drift control

Drift is a cloud of spray droplets carried by the wind during the treatment of fields with pesticide mixtures. This is the part of the solution that falls on the non-target spray area.
In a 6 m/s crosswind, drift can carry more than 30% of the total sprayed solution outside the target spray zone (85 cm and further from the nozzle).
Spray drift has a negative impact on the economic indicators of the farm, and also negatively affects the environment.
Company in cooperation with Lithuanian university has developed the research center for drift control agents development, which includes a fully automated 15 meters long wind tunnel, as well as drone spray trials facilities.
The first generation products are already presented to the market, having significant impact in drift reduction.

3) Manure treatment

Lithuanian company presents a multi-complex microbial technology for the treatment of liquid and litter manure. Technology contains live spores of microorganisms, enzymes, extracts and other active compounds.

Main product features:
- Performs oxidation of ammonia and sulfur compou
