BioBead develops small, biodegradable pellets that combine bacteria and fungi to help plants absorb essential nutrients more efficiently. The pellets act as a biofertilizer, enhancing crop yields while enabling carbon capture and reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers. This approach also helps alleviate water and air pollution associated with conventional fertilizer use.
