About FA Bio
FA Bio COMPANY STORY
Previously FungiAlert, FA Bio was founded in 2015 with the mission of developing tools to support regenerative agriculture and revolutionise disease management practices. Our SporSenZ technology was designed for the early detection of soil pathogens during the founders PhD studies at Imperial College London.
After a few years of using our SporSenZ for soil microbial analyses and early alert to soil disease risks, our company mission pivoted in 2021 when we started to use our innovative technology for the discovery of unique microbes for biocontrol and biostimulants products for growers.
our mission
Today, as FA Bio, our mission is to lead a paradigm shift in the discovery of microbial-based products to help minimise agriculture’s environmental impact whilst sustainably increasing crop productivity.
FA Bio is passionate about delivering sustainable farming solutions for agricultural challenges by discovering unique soil microbes that harnesses nature’s response to biotic and abiotic stresses in a cost-effective and efficient way.
Since 2016, the team is based at Rothamsted Research Centre, a world-leading research centre that focuses on agricultural science.
