Overview
ABAzyne Bioscience (Saskatoon, SK) is a biotech company modernizing cold weather crop protection.
What they’re doing: ABAzyne has developed a treatment featuring a naturally occurring plant hormone that gives crops an extra level of protection during unexpected cold snaps and frost.
How will this be used in the real world? Drastic temperature changes are happening more often, but farmers now have a new tool to weather the storm. ABAzyne’s crop spray boosts the cold and frost tolerance of wine grapes and tender fruit trees, preventing expensive crop loss and farmers’ need for fuel-intensive frost-protection equipment.
