Midwestern BioAg Awarded USDA Research Grant
Wisconsin Ag Connection - 07/21/2017

The Madison-based Midwestern BioAg, Inc. has received a Phase I Small Business Innovation Research grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The grant will fund development of an organic-allowed version of TerraNu fertilizer, a new class of fertilizer manufactured with anaerobically digested manure.

The project builds on the company's earlier innovation, TerraNu Nutrient Technology, which transforms dairy manure and plant nutrients into a uniform, dry fertilizer granule that can be efficiently stored, transported, blended and spread. The objective of the project is to develop a form of TerraNu fertilizer that can be used on certified-organic farms.

The SBIR program offers grants to qualified small businesses to support research of important scientific problems and opportunities in agriculture, especially projects that could lead to significant public benefits.

Midwestern BioAg manufactures and distributes fertilizers that build soil health to increase yields and quality of both food and forage.
