Key Takeaways:
- Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA) and Edacious announce a strategic collaboration focused on regenerative agriculture
- Partnership integrates agronomic expertise with food nutrient density measurement
- AEA growers will gain discounted access to Edacious’s lab and software services
- Initiative aims to help farmers connect regenerative practices to measurable food quality outcomes
Advancing Eco Agriculture strengthens regenerative agriculture with data insights
Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA), a leader in regenerative agronomy, has entered into a strategic partnership with Edacious, a company specializing in food quality measurement and data platforms. The collaboration is designed to accelerate the adoption of regenerative practices by providing farmers with both agronomic support and measurable data on nutrient density, traceability, and shelf stability of food products.
John Kempf, AEA’s founder and Chief Vision Officer, emphasized the broader mission of the collaboration. “We’ve been excited about the opportunity of growing food as medicine since AEA was founded almost twenty years ago. With the ability of Edacious to measure food nutritional integrity, we’ll be able to demonstrate the many ways that regenerative systems can benefit human nutrition and health,” he said.
Edacious brings food quality measurement to regenerative systems
Edacious applies advanced laboratory technology and a data-driven software platform to analyze food nutrient density and safety. Its tools provide growers and food supply chains with credible measurements that connect agricultural practices to consumer health outcomes.
Through the partnership, AEA growers will receive discounts on Edacious’s services, increasing access to high-level analysis. Eric Smith, CEO of Edacious, noted the importance of measurable outcomes for farmers. “For too long, growers have had to compete on a commodity basis, with little recognition for the quality of the food they produce. By making food quality and nutrient density measurable, this partnership helps growers establish a new standard—one where their stewardship and regenerative practices translate directly into the value of their products.”
Supporting transparency and market differentiation
By linking regenerative practices to demonstrable improvements in food quality, the collaboration allows farmers to differentiate their products in competitive markets and potentially capture greater financial value. This approach also aligns with increasing consumer demand for nutrition, transparency, and ecological responsibility.
Eric Girdler, CEO of AEA, said, “AEA’s mission is to empower growers with innovative, science-backed tools and solutions to regenerate and revitalize agriculture and food systems. The solutions provided by Edacious fit within that mission, and have significant potential to enhance the bottom-line success of our growers.”
Building a data-driven regenerative agriculture future
The partnership underscores the role of data in building credibility and accountability in regenerative agriculture. By combining AEA’s agronomy expertise with Edacious’s measurement technology, both organizations aim to support resilient farm operations, healthier food production, and long-term ecosystem restoration.
Together, Advancing Eco Agriculture and Edacious are aligning science, technology, and grower support to help regenerative agriculture scale with measurable environmental and nutritional outcomes.
