Grower Advisory Panel - PhycoTerra®

The PhycoTerra® Grower Advisory Panel

We're investing in the future of farming with real trials on real farms.

What is the grower advisory panel?

At PhycoTerra, we believe real results are proven in the field, not just in the lab. In 2024, we partnered with six growers across two states to run on-farm trials, collecting real-world data on yield and return on investment.

Participating growers received our products at no cost, worked with us to design and execute trials tailored to their operations, and received direct support from the PhycoTerra team.

The insights from these broad-acre, field-level trials feed back into how we improve our products and support growers, helping us advance our overall mission: to help more people farm forever.

GAP Program Objective

The Grower Advisory Panel (GAP) is a grower partnership program that conducts on-farm trials across diverse management systems and environments to validate the real-world performance of PhycoTerra products.

How It Works

1. Growers sign up to be a part of the GAP program.

2. Growers then work with PhycoTerra employees to set up trial acres.

3. PhycoTerra employees stop by throughout the growing seasons to capture relevant data points and check in on crop progress.

4. Final data is collected at harvest.

5. Growers provide feedback on their experience working with PhycoTerra.
