Arizona Firm Introduces New Agricultural Bio-Technology: Launches National Distribution
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - World Soil Solutions, LLC, a privately-held global agricultural
product marketing and distribution firm headquartered in Scottsdale,
Arizona, has introduced a new eco-friendly, technologically-advanced
soil amendment product and has completed a cooperative arrangement with
AgSource, LLC of New Albany, Mississippi for the sale and marketing of
the product in the United States. The announcement was made
jointly today by Donald D. Meyers, President and CEO of World Soil
Solutions and Chris Coombs, President and CEO of AgSource.
According to Meyers, "The product, Microfix , is an
organically-based soil amendment which, through numerous field tests,
has demonstrated significant crop yield increases of up to 17% and a
major improvement in microbial activity resulting in increased nutrient
uptake. On-going field demonstrations indicate Microfix
performs even better when farmers reduce their conventional fertilizer
inputs." Meyers concluded, "The combined result is a
potential increase in growers' profitability."
Coombs said, "Microfix is a soil amendment that not only
increases macro- and micronutrient uptake but stimulates plant growth
and increases yields in corn, soybeans, cotton, wheat and other row
crops."
Microfix , with its patent-pending 'Suma Grow Inside' ingredient
technology, is a polymicrobial-based formulation developed over several
years by a world-renowned team of soil microbiologists. Microfix
includes thirty varieties of living microbes, beneficial bacteria and
fungi which, when applied to row crops, produces a more healthy soil.
By using Microfix , farmers can reduce chemical fertilizers
resulting in a positive impact on the environment by reducing pollution
of soil, streams and ground-water. Organizations dedicated
to improving the environment have shown great interest in this new
technology.
Coombs, a sixth generation farmer and a graduate of Mississippi
State University with graduate work at Wharton Business School, founded
AgSource in 2006. With nearly 30 years in the agricultural
products industry, he previously served in various sales, marketing and
management capacities within such companies as The DuPont Corporation
where he headed the U.S. Cotton Products Business Group and the U.S.
Fungicide business. In the early 90s he was recruited by
the BASF Corporation to lead their U.S. marketing effort.
World Soil Solutions is currently marketing its microbial-based
soil amendment products in the United States, and is pursuing marketing
affiliations in the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Canada, China, South
Korea, Japan and Taiwan and intends to pursue similar marketing
opportunities in other areas of the world. AgSource will be
World Soil Solutions' marketing arm in the United States focusing
initially on the southeast, the mid-south and west with staged expansion
across North America.
World Soil Solutions of Scottsdale, Arizona is working with
farmers and the food production industry worldwide to restore soil
health, enhance crop performance, improve nutritional content of food
and reverse the effects of land degradation.
