Mosaic Biosciences launches website to bring transparency to the ag biologicals market

Knowing that farmers generally want proof of efficacy when choosing new products to try on their farms, Mosaic Biosciences invested in a robust biologicals performance database in 2023 to show real-world results. This database is part of the foundation of the TruResponse data platform, which will provide transparency in field trial results and increase confidence in biological products.

Now, Mosaic Biosciences announces TruResponseWorks.com, an interactive website showcasing the data compiled through various trials, giving farmers an insider view into local and regional data so they can make informed decisions about products to use in their fields.

The very nature of biologicals often leads to inconsistent results. Living organisms are impacted by their surroundings, including soil type, existing microbial activity in the soil, temperature, moisture, pest pressure and other factors. Many of these conditions are out of the control of the farmer, leading to varying experiences when using biologicals. However, with TruResponse and TruResponseWorks.com, Mosaic Biosciences is showing how their biological products perform in different areas, and in different environments, around the country.

"TruResponse and its coordinating website were created from the desire to give farmers tools and information they need to determine what products could be impactful for them," said Matt Sowder, Director of Global Agronomy, Mosaic Biosciences. "We know there are questions about agricultural biologicals in general, and not all biologicals perform consistently every time. Farmers can use the data on TruRepsonseWorks.com to see how our biologicals perform in geographies near them, where soil types, weather conditions, farming practices and other factors may be similar."

Farmers can choose to see trial data on the website based on crop, fertilizer application methods, irrigation, and tillage practices - or any combination of those factors - and see the results on a map. Users can then choose a map location to see more details about the trial and how Mosiac Biosciences performed in that area and with those specific conditions.

"In keeping with Mosaic's commitment to providing the very best in crop nutrition information and education, TruResponse is the next step in bringing trusted biological products to the market," Sowder said. "Real world trials and real-world results are at the fingertips of farmers who want to learn more and take their farms to the next level. It's just the starting point of improving the perception and trust in agricultural biologicals."
