About Ancient Organics Bioscience

Our Company

Ancient Organics® creates organic agricultural inoculants composed of microorganisms that provide health benefits to your soil and plants. Our products reduce the need for chemical fertilizers because our beneficial microorganisms, not chemicals, are providing plant and soil nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphate, potassium and carbon

Using biological alternatives

to reduce chemical inputs is better for our planet and helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, unlike chemicals, living microorganisms have the ability to improve soil and plant health by restoring a healthy microbiome. A healthy microbiome in turn increases soil productivity, accelerates plant growth and improves crop yields.

Microorganisms: Natural Breakdown of Chemical Soil Contaminants for Healthier Food Production

Some of the microorganisms in our products also have the ability to naturally break down chemical soil contaminants such as Glyphosate, which can kill the soil microbiome and reduce productivity of the soil.  The breakdown of these chemical soil contaminants is important because the contaminants are no longer taken up by the plants, resulting in healthier foods.

Ancient Microbial Inoculants: Harnessing Lost Biodiversity for Adaptability and Resilience

Our microbial inoculants contain bacteria from ancient sources that benefit from the lost biodiversity from ancient environments.  These ancient organisms have developed somewhat different metabolic pathways in response to their ancient environments and may be more adaptable and resilient than their modern day counterparts.
