At 3BarBio, we're at the forefront of innovation in microbial inoculant delivery, helping to make biologicals simpler and more effective for farmers. 🌾 One of the most exciting trends on the rise is planter box additives, which give farmers more flexibility when it comes to seed treatment. And now, the layering of seed lubricants with microbial inoculants is gaining momentum. 💡 By applying dry microbial products with seed lubricants, microbial products seamlessly fit into existing farming practices while avoiding the microbe desiccation losses often seen with liquid treatments. It's all about making cutting-edge solutions practical and impactful in the field, so farmers can get the most out of their crops. 🌿 #Agriculture #Innovation #MicrobialInoculants #SustainableFarming #AgTech

"I'm not a weed, I'm a flower." - Thistlewit, Maleficent. 🌱 Exciting news! This startup enables plants 🌿 to talk 💬 📣 to farmers, slashing pesticide use and agricultural waste by 30% InnerPlant’s breakthrough technology uses fluorescents to emit a signal in the leaves when a plant is in distress. CEO Shely Aronov explains that this helps farmers precisely target treatment, saving them money by reducing chemical over-application by up to 30%.   “As the plant is reacting to the stresses in your environment, like fungal pressure insects or nitrogen deficiency, it will start to signal and then we can help farmers understand what areas of the field need something and what areas are fine and don’t need additional chemicals,” said Shely Aronov, CEO of InnerPlant. "Plants reacting to environmental stressors emit signals. By decoding these, farmers can pinpoint areas needing treatment, cutting down on unnecessary chemical use," Aronov enthuses.   The technology is scalable and could be licensed to major seed companies. InnerPlant would earn royalty revenue, which makes it enticing to investors. Reducing chemical over-application by up to 30% - ✨ Thank you Shely Aronov for all that you do! 🏆 #AgriculturalSustainability #ReducePesticides
