Tidal Grow Expands Biofertilizer Offerings for Sustainable Crop Nutrition
Upcycling Seafood Byproducts for Sustainable Agriculture
At the core of Tidal Grow’s product lineup is chitosan, a biodegradable compound derived from chitin, which is naturally found in crustacean shells. Through Tidal Grow’s upcycling process, seafood byproducts such as crab shells and fish remnants are converted into functional agricultural inputs that:
✅ Enhance plant immunity by activating natural defense responses.
✅ Improve nutrient absorption and increase crop resilience against environmental stress.
✅ Optimize fertilizer efficiency, leading to better returns for growers.
✅ Promote soil health and microbial activity, supporting regenerative agriculture principles.
The products are formulated for low application rates, ensuring maximum efficiency and compatibility with existing crop protection strategies.
Tidal Grow Aligns with 4R Nutrient Stewardship for Sustainable Farming
Aligning with Canada’s Sustainable Agriculture Goals
Tidal Grow’s biofertilizer solutions align with Fertilizer Canada’s 4R Nutrient Stewardship principles (Right Source @ Right Rate, Right Time, Right Place®), reinforcing the company’s commitment to:
- Maximizing nutrient efficiency to reduce fertilizer waste.
- Enhancing soil health by using natural, upcycled inputs.
- Providing cost-effective solutions that support economic sustainability for farmers.
Tidal Grow’s cold-processed seafood hydrolysate fertilizers are developed using a variety of fish and seafood byproducts, offering an alternative to synthetic fertilizers while maintaining strong agronomic performance.
Positioning Tidal Grow for Global Growth
Expanding Tidal Grow’s Reach in the Regenerative Agriculture Sector
With its entry into the Canadian market, Tidal Grow AgriScience is advancing its mission to provide sustainable, science-backed agricultural solutions to a global audience.
