EcoFite: Microbial Formulation for Resilient Crop Performance
A versatile microbial consortium that enhances plant productivity and stress tolerance across greenhouse and field applications
Technology Readiness Level 5-6
EcoFite is being validated in active greenhouse and ﬁeld trials on tomatoes, lettuce, and sorghum in northern New Mexico and western Texas.
IP Information: This technology is patent pending and PCT ﬁled.
Overview
Modern agriculture faces persistent challenges including declining soil fertility, extreme weather, and rising input costs. EcoFite is a biologically based alternative that addresses these issues using a consortium of beneﬁcial bacteria to promote plant growth, improve nutrient access, and enhance resilience to stressors like salinity and drought. Designed for ﬂexible application, EcoFite can be
delivered as a seed coating or foliar spray. Current trials include lettuce, sorghum, and tomatoes under both greenhouse and ﬁeld conditions, with promising early results across diverse crop types.
Advantages
• Enhances crop yield, stress tolerance, and growth consistency
• Reduces reliance on chemical fertilizers and pesticides
• Improves nutrient use efﬁciency beyond nitrogen-based inputs
• Increases tolerance to drought, salinity, and temperature ﬂuctuations
• Promotes healthier soil microbiomes and soil carbon sequestration
• Compatible with organic agriculture practices and application systems
• Enables growers to apply via multiple delivery methods for operational ﬂexibility and ease of use
Technology Description
EcoFite is a curated microbial consortium developed using LANL-s rational design platform for microbial communities. The selected endophytes colonize internal plant tissue and promote performance through multiple mechanisms including enhanced nutrient uptake, stimulated growth, immune system activation, accelerated/synchronized ﬂowering, and the release of plant metabolites that enri...
