Cooling Crops is a pioneering academic spinout committed to advance global food security by overcoming land degradation and thermal stress. Our patented sprayable powder is used on soil after seeding to boost crop emergence by up to 12% or on trees and vine to prevent thermal stress. Its long term regenerative benefits restore the soil microbiome to a healthier state, improve soil water retention by X3, reduce wind erosion by more than 80%, and lower soil and crop temperatures by 3-6°C under direct sunlight - enhancing thermal resilience and accelerating growth.
