Joyn Bio engineers microbes that colonize cereal crop roots and fix atmospheric nitrogen, aiming to eliminate synthetic nitrogen fertilizer dependency in corn and wheat.
Joyn Bio is an agricultural biotechnology company founded in 2017 as a joint venture between Ginkgo Bioworks and Bayer to engineer nitrogen-fixing microbes for cereal crops. The company uses synthetic biology tools from Ginkgo's platform to design and optimize bacteria that establish stable associations with corn, wheat, and other grass crops, fixing atmospheric nitrogen in a way that legumes achieve naturally but grasses do not. Eliminating or dramatically reducing synthetic nitrogen fertilizer in cereal crops would represent one of the most significant advances in sustainable agriculture given that nitrogen fertilizer production consumes roughly 1% of global energy and contributes substantially to greenhouse gas emissions through both manufacturing and field application. Joyn Bio is conducting field trials to demonstrate nitrogen fixation performance in cereal crops at commercially relevant scales. The company leverages Bayer's global agricultural distribution and Ginkgo's synthetic biology platform to pursue an ambitious program that, if successful, could reshape the economics and environmental footprint of global grain production.
Regenerative agriculture carbon program and soil carbon measurement platform. Copenhagen, Denmark. Raised €46M+. Operates across Europe with 1M+ enrolled acres.
Agreena is a Copenhagen-based agricultural technology company that operates Europe's leading soil carbon program for arable farmers. Founded in 2018, the company has raised over €46 million and has enrolled more than one million acres of European farmland into its regenerative agriculture carbon certification program.\n\nAgreena's platform guides farmers through the transition to regenerative practices — including no-till, cover cropping, and reduced synthetic inputs — and uses a combination of satellite remote sensing and soil sampling to quantify and verify the resulting carbon sequestration. Farmers receive carbon certificates they can sell to corporate buyers seeking high-integrity agricultural carbon credits.\n\nThe company has built strong relationships with European agribusinesses, cooperatives, and food companies seeking to address Scope 3 agricultural emissions. Agreena's approach of combining farmer incentives with rigorous MRV methodology positions it as a key player in Europe's transition to carbon-smart farming, and the company is expanding its program footprint across Central and Eastern Europe.
