Levity Cropscience is a privately owned UK company formed by biotech entrepreneur David J Marks to commercialise his research. Its mission statement is:
‘Making agriculture sustainable by improving the chemicals used to grow crops using natural chemistry - making more food per hectare, delivering improved margin and sales to our customers, and safeguarding the environment.’
The worlds increasing human population is placing a huge strain on the earths finite resources. If sufficient food is to continue to be produced without irrevocably damaging the environment then ways must be found to increase the efficiency of food production and to decrease the reliance on non-sustainable resources.
Levity Cropscience is a business dedicated to research and development of sustainable chemistry. It develops products that can improve the performance of conventional chemicals. Levity believes that the greatest gains in sustainability will be made by improving conventional chemistry, rather than by wholesale replacement of it.
Levity Cropscience’s business model is to focus on research and development, and partner with companies that have existing sales and marketing infrastructure - helping it’s partners to produce better products.
Based at LEC where it has offices, laboratories and experimental glasshouse facilities Levity is engaged in an ambitious programme of research and development. It’s principle goal is the development of chemistry that allows fertilizers to be more efficiently taken up and used by crops.
This research is the basis for all Levity products which include additives (for use by fertilizer manufacturers to improve product performance) and formulated products containing Levity chemistry.
Levity’s research is helping to make agricultural products smarter, making products more sustainable, lower dose, and delivering higher yields from the crops on which they are applied. Levity Smart Fertilizer additives TM are already being used all around the world, with partners in the USA, South America, Europe and Africa.
