In 2019, more than 2.5 million yield data points were generated from 38 farms growing corn with Pivot Bio Proven alongside untreated checks in structured field trials that were designed and commissioned through a third party.
“One of the big challenges for the industry as a whole is that excitement in the laboratory about various strains of microbes that have the potential to be useful for growers doesn’t translate out to viable products or hasn’t in the past,” she says.
