Micronutrients fertilizers are growing in their adoption as more farmers and agronomists identify limiting factors in crop production and human nutrition. Lucent Biosciences has developed a low-cost method of binding micronutrients to cellulose, which imparts a novel mode of action resulting in increased nutrient uptake, and improved yields. In 2021 Lucent is working with 40 farms covering about 1,000 acres with Soileos products. We are on track to cover 40,000 acres with existing customers, and new distribution partners for the 2022 growing season.
