☘️ Healthy soil, please

Chemical fertilizers make farming more productive, but they come with a cost. 

Overuse of chemical fertilizers can lead to loss of soil organic carbon, which affects the soil’s ability to sequester carbon. 

• The use of biostimulants and biofertilizers can help maintain soil health, making it a great product for promoting regenerative agriculture. 
• Better soil health means farmers can increase soil organic matter and rely less on synthetic fertilizers.

🌊 Why seaweed? 

Seaweed absorbs excess carbon dioxide, making it a more eco-friendly option to farm. Plus, seaweed cultivation doesn’t require fertilizers or freshwater!

✍️ What’s with the $$$? 

They’ll use the $$$ to level up product development, scale operations across Indonesia, and form strategic partnerships!

• Heads up. They’re looking to collaborate with organizations that share their vision of sustainable agriculture and environmental responsibility.
