GHGE Study Confirms Lucent Bio’s Sustainable Fertilizers Turn Farming Climate-Positive
On average 2.3 tonnes of CO₂e sequestered per acre; scale-up signals momentum in sustainable Agtech
Vancouver, May 15 – Lucent Biosciences (“Lucent Bio”), an award-winning sustainable Agtech company, has completed an extensive greenhouse gas emission (GHGE) study, revealing a significant advance in climate-smart agriculture. Greenhouse and field trials confirm that Lucent Bio’s proprietary fertilizer technology, Soileos, can sequester an average 2.3 tonnes of carbon per acre, with peak results reaching 10 tonnes in select crops and environments, This lays the foundation for low carbon or even climate-positive wheat, corn and soy crops, and a more resilient agri-food system.

Lucent Bio’s recent GHGE trials demonstrate that its products support improved soil microbiome activity and increase total organic carbon, both key indicators of healthier, more resilient soils.
Made from upcycled agricultural byproducts and free from microplastics and synthetic chelators, Lucent Bio’s fertilizer technology platform embodies a circular, non-polluting approach to crop nutrition.
As demand for low-carbon solutions in farming accelerates, Lucent Bio is rapidly scaling to meet demand. The company has quadrupled its year-over-year sales of Soileos and is preparing to begin onsite work for a seed coating manufacturing facility. These developments mark a critical step in Lucent Bio’s mission to accelerate the transition to a sustainable agri-food system through innovative crop input solutions that are climate-positive, non-polluting, and based on circular economies.
“Our fertilizers are delivering measurable impact in the field, turning crop production climate-positive,” said Michael Riedijk, CEO of Lucent Bio. “This isn’t future potential. It’s happening now, backed by third-party data and ready to scale. We’re proud to make solutions for farmers and the environment."
“The results validate the science behind our technology,” said Farah Nour, Chief Science Officer at Lucent Bio. “By optimizing crop inputs for both nutrient efficiency and soil carbon sequestration, we’re leveraging circular chemistry to deliver scalable, climate-positive solutions that are both scientifically rigorous and field-ready.”
Lucent Bio’s technologies are already integrated into commercial farm operations across North America, delivering both increased productivity and environmental value. As food producers, brands, and retailers work to decarbonize supply chains, Lucent Bio offers a practical, science-driven solution supporting productivity and climate resilience.
With global agri-food systems under pressure to meet the dual challenge of feeding a growing population while reducing agriculture's environmental footprint, Lucent Bio proves that agriculture can be a part of the climate solution.
