AMF (arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi) bionutrients produced at cutting edge manufacturing facility in Delhi, India
Enhanced Nature (EN), a newly formed US company, today announced that it has begun operations to supply AMF (arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi) bionutrients to partners worldwide from its cutting edge manufacturing facility in Delhi, India.
EN’s founding partner Symbiotic Sciences has been manufacturing the highest quality concentrated AMF for over 15 years, and these AMF bionutrients are now available to partners exclusively through EN. Other founding partners include Aditya Malhotra (CEO) and Tom Laurita (Board Chair). Rob Gibson has joined Enhanced Nature as VP Business Development and Sales.
“When Symbiotic Sciences began manufacturing and supplying AMF-based bionutrients over 15 years ago, many companies were either not aware of the value AMF brings to agriculture – or they hadn’t even heard of it”, said Enhanced Nature’s CEO Aditya Malhotra. “That meant we and others had to educate the market and do years of trials in the Americas and elsewhere. Today the landscape is different, and AMF is recognized as a foundational bionutrient for both high value and row crop applications. This transformation makes now the right time to launch Enhanced Nature.”
Co-founder and Board Chair Tom Laurita commented, “I have been CEO of leading companies in the Ag biotech space, so I know that product manufacturing and scale up are huge challenges. EN is in an enviable position to grow sales rapidly because Symbiotic Sciences has really cracked the manufacturing nut. Their products are among the highest quality and most concentrated AMF-based bionutrients being made anywhere in the world. As the exclusive supplier of these products, EN will quickly establish itself as a major player in the bionutrient space.”
“I have done R&D and BD in the bionutrient and biocontrol industry for over ten years during my time at Novozymes and Certis” said Rob Gibson, VP BD and Sales. “Over this period I have observed the growth in market awareness of the value and the impact of AMF as a vital component of any complete bionutrient package. EN is already seeing tremendous demand everywhere for AMF sourced from a reliable and high quality manufacturer. Both distribution partners and end-users are looking for the next generation of effective high ROI biologicals, and AMF definitely fits that description. I’m really excited about this team and opportunity.”
