As such, commercial and industrial adoption of biostimulants is spreading globally, as expressed by the relatively new European Biostimulants Industry Council (EBIC - founded in 2011), which states that more than 3 million hectares are treated with repeated biostimulant applications in Europe every year.The promotion of the benefits of biostimulants has come thanks in part to leading organizations like the ECIB and the U.S. based BioStimulant Coalition, whose members include Arysta LifeScience and Marrone Bio Innovations (NASDAQ: MBII). Arysta was making the headlines last year with a potential IPO before Platform Specialty Products (NYSE: PAH) bought them from the European private equity firm Permira for about $3.5 billion in October, nixing the IPO shortly thereafter.These organizations are creating awareness about biostimulants and benefit everyone in the space, including GroGenesis (OTCQB: GROG), the maker of a one-two punch of natural products: the biostimulantAgraBurstand the broad-spectrum agricultural crop protection antisepticAgraBlast.GroGenesis has successfully tested its AgraBurst product in the most difficult of growing conditions on various crops. Fromsugarcanein Guatemala tocornin North Carolina towheatin Australia and places and plants in between, such as Mexico, Thailand, Vietnam and China, AgraBurst has been shown to improve yields across the globe.Biostimulants represent an emerging industry expected to experience solid growth in the near future, leaving headroom for market capture by upstarts likeMarroneandGroGenesis. As succinctly noted in a recent GroGenesisrelease, research firm MarketsandMarkets estimates the biostimulants industry will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 12.5% to $2.5 billion by 2019, roughly in line with the CAGR predictions for the North American market by Market Publishers of Birmingham, U.K.Looking to the crop protection market, a separate, but synergistic business segment to the biostimulant sector, Germany-based Ceresana Research estimates sales will be in excess of $52 billion in 2019, creating a tremendous opportunity for the very few companies that directly target both industries- especially with products that work together (or separately) as the GroGenesis offering has been designed to leverage.South America is one of the world's biggest consumers of crop protection products. As prolific crop producers, South and Central American farms also deal with significant pathogenic fungal diseases, such as coffee leaf rust and black sigatoka impacting high value coffee and banana crops, respectively. GroGenesis has a strong hand in proving the positive effects of AgraBurst and AgraBlast in these markets, making it a prime initiative for the company to focus its efforts on inking distribution agreements in these regions. As part of this targeted initiative, the company has releasedwhite paperson recent field trials showing the rapid action and overall efficacy of its products to protect banana and coffee crops in Latin America, and while this experience has proven successful, the Company claims equal effects can be produced in a wide number of economically critical and environmentally stressed crops around the globe.GroGenesis is run by seasoned and successful veterans of the agriculture industry and has attracted some top scientific, entrepreneurial and venture capital talent, including Stuart Brazier, who serves as VP of Corporate Development. Brazier's resume includes co-foundingRenergy Foods AG, an urban agriculture research and development business company.In the video below, Mr. Brazier explains why he is "extremely positive" about the future possibilities of AgraBurst and AgraBlast as differentiated from other products by means of converging the biostimulant and crop protection sectors under the umbrella of GroGenesis. He further explains why competition is limited as GroGenesis products don't compete with, but rather complement, existing industries, specifically in the manner that AgraBurst enhances fertilizer products by significantly increasing nutrient uptake while AgraBlast protects against pathogens. A major advantage to these products is that they are not synthetic and don't leave any residue or long-term effects in the soil while actually offering additional remedial effects in many instances. The uniqueness of these products position GroGenesis to work hand-in-hand with fertilizer companies and existing distributors in a market predicted to experience robust growth as the need for assured global food sources continues to increase.SECFilings TV Interview with Mr. Stuart Brazier / VP of Business Development at GroGenesis, Inc.
