Plant Impact plc is a young, highly inventive company
that is transforming agriculture through its creative
approach. The company is diametrically opposed to the
traditional methods of screening hundreds of thousands
ac
of compounds in the hope of finding a solution. Instead
it utilises a very different methodology to identify creative
scientific solutions to plant problems. In short, the HI
company thinks from within the plant. This revolutionary
approach has led to a range of products that are showing
e
dramatic results in the field in terms of quality, marketable
yield and environmental impact. Plant Impact has rapidly

leading the way to healthier, stronger crops through its
committed uncompromising approach.
