Our History

Agricen is a pioneer in developing and delivering innovative biological and biochemical-based products that sustainably enhance plant health, quality and yield.

Meeting Agribusiness Challenges Since 1998

Since 1998, we have worked with partners in agriculture and related industries to meet agricultural challenges with cost-effective and sustainable technologies that improve nutrient use efficiency, enhance plant performance and increase crop quality and yield. Our commercialized product technologies and ingredients for agriculture are available from major ag retailers and distributors across three continents. Commercialized turf and ornamental product technologies, which include the SoilLife™ and NutriLife® brands, are sold through a variety of retailers in the turf, nursery and landscape markets. 

 

Our success with these fertilizer efficiency products and other technologies has enabled a pipeline and unmatched R&D function capable of solving the most pressing problems in agriculture, with key efforts focused on delivering biological and biostimulant technologies that address nutrient efficiency, crop and food quality, abiotic stress, biotic stress and sustainability. 

Pioneering Biological & Biostimulant Solutions

In the late 1950s, Texas farmer Bob Pedigo pioneered the original product technology, launching products with applications in plant nutrition as well as soil and water remediation. In 1998, Mr. Pedigo licensed his processes, formulations and worldwide commercial rights to Agricen, then called Advanced Microbial Solutions (AMS). Since that time, Agricen has been dedicated to providing agricultural and related markets with practical plant health and nutrition solutions that are derived from the diverse biological and biochemical content of Mr. Pedigo’s original products, now bolstered by innovations from our world class R&D program.
 
Today, Agricen is a leader in the delivery of biochemical, biostimulant and biological technologies that enhance plant health and nutrition—providing growers with the tools they need to increase productivity and sustainability. Our commercialized products, which are manufactured using our patented bioconversion platforms both in the United States and in Australia, are available globally across the U.S., Australia, Canada and South America. With the help of our sister company, Agricen Sciences, we are devoted to the research, development and commercialization of cutting-edge microbial and biochemical solutions for agriculture, turf and related industries—solutions that are "Based on Nature, Built on Science."
