Insect microbiome biotech for agriculture
BugBiome is an agricultural biotechnology company developing sustainable pest-control solutions powered by natural microbiomes. It discovers and optimises beneficial microbes that can protect crops from harmful pests while preserving pollinators and other beneficial insects. Its work combines microbiology, entomology and data analytics through a high-throughput insect behavioural screening platform, which analyses how insects respond to microbial candidates and identifies novel modes of action. The company’s products aim to reduce crop losses, support biodiversity and provide farmers with effective alternatives to conventional pesticides.
