Expanding to Brazil: Agrotek partners with AgNest to advance soil health and regenerative agriculture

 At Agrotek, we’ve always believed that meaningful innovation in agriculture happens where science meets real-world conditions.

That’s why we’re excited to share an important milestone: during Agrishow 2026,one of the largest agricultural trade shows in the world, we officially signed a partnership with AgNest, an agricultural innovation hub in Brazil focused on testing and validating technologies in real field environments.

Why Brazil, and why now?

Brazil is one of the most dynamic and influential agricultural markets in the world. With its scale, diversity of crops, and complex growing conditions, it offers a unique opportunity to test solutions that are both resilient and adaptable.

For us, entering the Brazilian ecosystem is not just about expansion. It’s about learning, collaborating, and contributing to a broader conversation around the future of agriculture.

Bringing soil-first solutions to the field

Through this partnership, Agrotek will begin testing its humic acid-based solutions in Brazil.

Derived from high-quality leonardite sourced from our own mine in Saskatchewan, Canada, our products are designed to work where it matters most: in the soil. By improving soil structure, increasing water retention, and enhancing nutrient uptake, humic substances help farmers get more out of the inputs they already use.

In practical terms, this means:

• stronger root development
• improved nutrient efficiency
• better resilience under stress conditions
• and more consistent crop performance over time

Supporting regenerative agriculture in practice

This work is closely aligned with the principles of regenerative agriculture — an approach that focuses on restoring soil health, improving biological activity, and building long-term resilience in farming systems.

Rather than relying solely on increased inputs, regenerative practices aim to improve how the system functions as a whole. Healthier soils lead to better water retention, more efficient nutrient cycling, and ultimately, more stable yields.

From collaboration to real-world impact

AgNest provides an ideal environment for this next phase of Agrotek’s work. As a hub that brings together researchers, companies, and field trials, it allows technologies to be tested, adapted, and validated under real agricultural conditions.

This is critical. What works in theory must prove itself in the field, and under the specific challenges that farmers face every day.

Looking ahead

We’re planning to begin field trials in Brazil’s upcoming planting cycle, starting in September and aligned with the main soybean growing season, and are looking forward to building strong relationships within the Brazilian agricultural ecosystem.

This partnership represents more than a new market. It’s an opportunity to connect knowledge, strengthen innovation across borders, and contribute to a more resilient and sustainable future for agriculture.
