APPROACH - NytroPonix

MISSION: Dedicated to hand over a cleaner and greener planet with sustainable food sources to the next generation.

APPROACH: NytroPonix has developed a robust “Plant-Based Atmospheric Nitrogen and Carbon Capture & seed development Platform”, that will continue to develop cutting edge tools and technologies for the regulated capture and utilization of atmospheric Nitrogen and Carbon by plants and optimized seeds for high-yield crops to feed the globe in a carbon-neutral sustainable manner.

To do so, Nytroponix leverages synthetic biology and genetic engineering to express naturally occurring traits, such as nitrogen fixation, carbon capture through the photosynthetic reaction center, pest control, and disease resistance in crops. This new class of ag biologicals bring home several advantages to farmers:

Significantly reduce the amount of industrial fertilizer they used in crop production
Increse carbon capture by plants
Without sacrificing on profitability or performance
Enhance productivity in addition to contributing to carbon neutrality and a green environment

Thus, NytroPonix has been founded to solve the urgent agriculture challenges threatening our global food supply/shortage and environmental health.

The platform starts with a library of highly characterized naturally occurring genes to develop solutions that deliver a specific benefit to the plant, such as regulated nitrogen fixation, increase carbon capture, protect crops from pests and environmental uncertainties such as flooding or droughts, for robust growth and high-yield products. Each new project will benefit from selectively utilizing information from the decades of research in the field, so the platform is constantly gaining speed, accuracy, and momentum, in increasing the probability of success.

This requires that we move quickly and establish a robust program to accomplish this new next green revolution.
