Our Process

Active AgriScience product research is conducted by selected Canadian and American Universities combined with independent third-party research groups. This process verifies efficacy resulting in innovative products that allows growers to improve production, quality and profits while reducing the impact on the environment.

Idea Generation

All of our products begin with a desire to solve a grower’s problem, or to more significantly improve production and yield.

Idea Prioritization

Our scientists are experts in the plant growth cycle at a molecular level and understand precisely how various bio-chemical elements are absorbed and utilized by different parts of the plant.

Conception

This knowledge sparks targeted ideas to solve growers’ cultivation problems.

Rapid Prototyping

These ideas lead to hypotheses that are tested using observation, measurement, experimentation, formulation, testing, and modification.

Multi-year Field Trials

Potential products are then subject to rigorous research and thorough efficacy testing to ensure expected field performance. From this process, our team makes extraordinary new discoveries several of which hold international patents.

Products

Active AgriScience has developed products for most farming and feeding methods to enhance every stage of crop growth. Whether you’re growing in a field, greenhouse, or orchard, we have a product to support your agronomic goals.

Nitrogen Stabilizers

Active AgriScience patented nitrogen stabilization technology inhibits both ammonia volatilization, nitrification and denitrification, potentially reducing nitrogen loss from applied fertilizer by 95%.

Our Team
