RES 2025: Strengthening partnerships for sustainable land management

Held from March 10 to 13 in Las Vegas, RES 2025 brought together Indigenous leaders, government officials, and business representatives to discuss strategies for economic growth in Indigenous communities.

A central theme throughout the summit was the importance of collaboration in energy and resource management to ensure long-term sustainability. Discussions emphasized how shared efforts across industries can help maintain productive land for future generations. The event also featured a diverse marketplace, highlighting Indigenous artisans and entrepreneurs contributing to local economies.

Indoor Ag-Con 2025: Innovation in controlled environment agriculture

From March 11 to 12, we attended Indoor Ag-Con 2025, North America’s leading event for indoor and vertical farming. The conference provided an in-depth look at emerging technologies in controlled environment agriculture (CEA), greenhouse operations, and hydroponics.

It was an opportunity to connect with industry leaders, learn about new advancements in precision agriculture, and explore strategies to enhance efficiency and sustainability in food production. Discussions also included funding opportunities available to companies expanding into new markets, highlighting the role of investment in scaling agricultural innovation.

World Agri-Tech Innovation Summit: The future of agritech

The World Agri-Tech Innovation Summit, held in San Francisco on March 11-12, brought together agribusinesses, technology providers, and investors to explore innovations transforming the industry.

Key themes included the integration of AI and robotics in agriculture, the development of biological solutions, and strategies for building climate-resilient food systems. The summit reinforced the need for strategic partnerships to accelerate the adoption of new technologies and drive sustainable agricultural practices globally.

Beyond the conferences: A reminder of why sustainability matters

While in the region, we took the opportunity to explore Death Valley, the Grand Canyon, and Hoover Dam by helicopter. Seeing these vast landscapes from above served as a powerful reminder of why sustainability is so critical. Protecting our land and resources is not just about business—it’s about ensuring that future generations can continue to grow and thrive in a changing world.

These conferences provided critical insights into the evolving landscape of agriculture and innovation. The conversations and connections made will play a key role in shaping Agrotek’s strategies moving forward.

We look forward to implementing the knowledge gained and continuing to engage with industry leaders at future events.

We applied 15 liters per acre—twice early in the season and twice more later—without using synthetic fertilizers, fungicides, or pesticides. The results were immediate. Our first season’s yield increased to 26,000 pounds, an 18% boost. Encouraged by this success, we added Queen B, a seaweed-based biostimulant, in the second season. The outcome? A remarkable 33,000-pound yield—a 50% increase from our original baseline.

Beyond quantity, the quality of our berries improved significantly. They were larger, juicier, and ripened earlier, allowing us to enter the market a week ahead of competitors and secure premium prices. The economic and environmental benefits were clear: a 90% reduction in fertilizer costs, enhanced soil health, and a more sustainable approach to farming.

With these promising results, we sought to further validate the effectiveness of humic acid beyond our farm. That’s when we partnered with Simon Fraser University (SFU) and the B.C. Centre for Agritech Innovation (BCCAI). Through this collaboration, we conducted controlled greenhouse experiments on multiple crops, including tomatoes, peppers, blueberries, and elderberries. The studies confirmed significant improvements in yield, plant resilience, and soil health.

A detailed chemical analysis of our products supported our successful registration with the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI), certifying them under both Canadian Organic Standards (COS) and the USDA National Organic Program (NOP). These certifications marked an important step in scaling our products for commercial use, ensuring growers have access to high-quality, organic solutions.

Humic acid has transformed how we farm, and we believe it can do the same for others. If you’re looking to improve yields while maintaining soil health, visit our Products section to learn more about how our solutions can help your crops thrive.

Mixing powders and liquids is an intricate process that requires precision in handling vitamins, nutrients, dyes, chemicals, and organic raw materials. Having the right equipment and formulation is key to delivering top-quality products. That’s why we continuously upgrade our facility with modern technology and support local suppliers whenever possible.

Beyond efficiency, safety is a top priority. A well-maintained facility and a rigorous cleaning schedule ensure both product integrity and a safe working environment. Thanks to our team’s dedication to cleanliness and safety protocols, we have maintained a perfect safety record with zero accidents.

Investing in our equipment and workplace isn’t just about productivity—it’s about creating a safe, efficient, and innovative space for our team. These upgrades have allowed us to refine our products, meet increasing demand, and continue delivering the best solutions to our customers.

A shift toward sustainability

For decades, conventional fertilizers have been the backbone of modern agriculture, ensuring high yields to feed a growing population. However, farmers today face increasing challenges—soil depletion, environmental concerns, and the need for more sustainable practices. As demand for regenerative agriculture rises, so does the need for innovative solutions that enhance soil health without compromising productivity.

We founded Agrotek with a mission to bridge this gap. Starting with liquid fertilizers, we quickly gained traction among farmers looking for high-performance solutions. But as the agricultural industry evolved, so did our vision. We expanded our portfolio to include products designed to improve soil structure, increase nutrient retention, and reduce environmental impact.

Unlocking the power of leonardite

One of the keys to our sustainability efforts lies beneath Saskatchewan’s soil—leonardite, a naturally occurring, oxidized form of lignite rich in humic and fulvic acids. This valuable resource is known for its ability to enhance soil fertility, improve nutrient absorption, and promote healthier plant growth.

By responsibly extracting and processing leonardite, we are creating innovative liquid humic acid products that help farmers rejuvenate their soils and reduce dependency on synthetic fertilizers. This shift toward organic biostimulants not only benefits crop yields but also contributes to a more balanced ecosystem.

Partnering with farmers for a greener tomorrow

The transition to eco-friendly farming isn’t just about new products—it’s about collaboration. We work closely with farmers to ensure that sustainability doesn’t come at the cost of efficiency. Through research, field trials, and expert support, we empower growers to make informed decisions that benefit both their business and the environment.

As more farmers recognize the value of soil-first approaches, the shift toward sustainable agriculture is gaining momentum. We are proud to be part of this movement, helping to cultivate a future where high-yield farming and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.

The land has always been a source of nourishment and opportunity. With the right innovations, it can also be a foundation for a more sustainable world. And we are committed to making that future a reality—one field at a time.
