better soils for healthier foods and planet
MAKING OUR SOILS BETTER
The Agricultural & Nutritional Resources Division (AND) of GRI is responsible for all projects related to the development, conservation, and scalability of healthful, clean, and safe global food supplies, often in alignment with or support of integral partners Soil Secrets and FoodFarm365.
AND focuses on the growth and development of a stable and diversified food chain, sufficiently localized for flexibility and resilience in the face of changing environmental and geopolitical conditions. Sectors currently under aggressive development by AND include indoor production, soil recovery & restoration, agricultural land rehabilitation, and enhanced food nutrient density, but new opportunities are always under consideration. Cumulatively, these sectors, intelligently developed, can begin to ease food supply dysfunction, increase overall healthfulness, and positively impact the environment - measurably.

Recycling & Recovery of Agricultural & Food Production
Source & Supply of Agriculture and Food Production
The largest consumer of water on human behalf, agriculture demands new and innovative solutions aimed at overall efficiencies more than securing new or additional sources – efficiency becomes the source. Food processing/production is also very water intensive, particularly sanitary requirements, and can be revised for greater efficiency. GRI concentrates on current and near-term solutions that can be practically deployed. Ultimately, GRI will establish a pathway for agricultural exploitation of the green/blue economics.
Application of Agriculture & Food Production
Recycling & Recovery of Agricultural & Food Production
Source & Supply of Agriculture and Food Production
Efficiency is most critical to water resource application producing foodstuffs. Improved systems with hydro/aeroponic indoor growing while redesigning land-based cultivation and ranching techniques to optimize resource expenditure is paramount. GRI focuses heavily here to protect the critical and intrinsic link between water supply and food production under the stress of increasing demand and decreasing resource supply.

Recycling & Recovery of Agricultural & Food Production
Efficiencies and smart controls applied effectively in the sourcing and application of irrigation water effectively eliminate excess run-off, with crops more fully utilizing and transpiring its water. Soil bioamendments reduce the need for excess nutrients and water application to fields. Indoor farming water recovery is a trivial process with virtually zero wastewater post recycling.
