In the coming decades, farmers will face the challenges of a more unpredictable and harsh climate, increasing scarcity of natural resources, and the rising global demand for food. That’s why C-Bio’s primary focus is on producing more with fewer resources. At C-Bio, we embrace the a mindset, striving for excellence and applying scientific innovation to agriculture to deliver greater yields of healthier food, all with sustainability at the core.
At C-BIO, we understand that how we harvest seaweed plays a crucial role in the health of our ecosystems. In Ireland, sustainability is at the heart of our seaweed harvesting methods, and we take pride in upholding this responsibility from the very first step – the harvest itself. Our seaweed is ethically sourced, contributing to both the environment and the communities that rely on it.
Traditionally, seaweed harvesting in Ireland has been done by hand, a practice that has deep roots in local culture. Our harvesters continue this time-honoured method, venturing out during low tide to carefully gather Ascophyllum nodosum, a key species of seaweed, from rocks and boulders along the coastline. Using a serrated sickle (Knife), they cut the seaweed from its holdfast, ensuring that 12 to 20 cm of the plant remains attached to the rock. This allows the seaweed to regrow naturally and ensures the sustainability of the harvest for future generations.
As the world faces increasingly unpredictable climate conditions and a tightening supply of natural resources, farmers will be tasked with producing more food to meet rising global demandwith more constraints. At C-BIO, our central focus is on helpingthem do this with better and fewer resources. Embracing the“Sustainability” approach in our production system, we applycutting-edge science to agriculture, aiming to produce healthier food while prioritising sustainability along the chain. This is thefuture we are working toward. C-BIO is been recognised globallyfor offering high-quality, effective plant nutrition solutions, andwe continue to innovate as we strive to become a leading force inagricultural biostimulation and nutrition.
At C-Bio, we are dedicated to challenging the status quo. We combine expertise and business acumen to achieve outstanding results in our relentless pursuit of excellence in everything we do. Quality, staff safety, people, service, innovation and process.
The ocean is a vital resource, providing countless benefits to our planet. Seaweed, in particular, plays a crucial role in maintaining marine ecosystems, absorbing carbon dioxide, and producing oxygen. By harnessing the power of seaweed, we are not only enhancing plant quality and health but also contributing to environmental sustainability.
We strive to turn the impossible into reality. We cater to the curious minds who never stop learning, those who boldly drive change and embrace new ideas. We value individuals who can share their expertise while respecting diversity and promoting inclusion.
We strive to deeply understand the needs of our customers and assist them in maximising the potential of their crops. Our goal is to ensure that they meet the everevolving demands and expectations of the market. By doing so, we help them achieve a higher return on their investment.
