ProGro BIO, an Agtech microbial sciences company based in Atlanta, Ga., announced on Sept. 18 that it has been granted Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) certification for its Rhizol organic soil inoculant.
“Achieving OMRI certification for Rhizol is a significant milestone for ProGro BIO,” said Barry Roberts, the company’s Chief Operating Officer. “Rhizol has delivered impressive results in the field and the addition of the OMRI organic certification is further evidence of our commitment to the principles of regenerative agriculture, which is a linchpin in our company’s mission.”
Rhizol was fully commercialized by ProGro in 2023 and is formulated with 35 plant-beneficial microbial isolates. The product is available in fully soluble powder form and in a microbial-infused planter talc. ProGro said the Rhizol product line rejuvenates soils, enhancing crop performance and producing greater crop yields.
