Reinventing Fertilizer with Lucent Biosciences
In this episode of the AGvisorPRO Podcast, Rob Saik sits down with Jason McNamee, Founder, COO, and biogeoscientist at Lucent Biosciences, to explore a revolution in fertilizer technology. Despite decades of minimal innovation, modern fertilizers often only deliver 30–50% of nutrients effectively. Jason shares how Lucent’s Soileos—granular fertilizers bound with oat hulls—change the game by delivering nutrients exactly when crops need them, improving uptake efficiency, and supporting soil microbiomes.
From copper and zinc products to carbon sequestration benefits, Jason walks us through over 300 field trials proving the effectiveness of these next-generation fertilizers. He also explains the science behind bio-driven nutrient release, and how Soileos gives farmers a more reliable ROI while improving soil health.
Whether you’re an agronomist, retailer, or farmer, this episode shows how innovation can make fertilizers more efficient, environmentally friendly, and aligned with modern crop genetics.
