A Canadian-Made Fertilizer, Built for Results
Canadian agriculture is built on innovation, efficiency, and reliability. Fertilizer should be no different. Soileos is a dry granular micronutrient fertilizer developed and manufactured in Canada, delivering proven, profitable, and field-tested nutrition that fits seamlessly into modern fertilizer programs.
Why Choosing a Canadian-Made Fertilizer Matters
In the current landscape of international trade tensions and tariffs, selecting a domestically produced fertilizer like Soileos offers significant advantages:
- Supply Chain Stability: Domestic production minimizes exposure to international trade disputes and tariffs, ensuring a consistent and reliable supply.
- Economic Support: Purchasing Canadian-made products supports local industries and contributes to the national economy
- Quality Assurance: Manufactured entirely within Canada, Soileos maintains stringent quality control measures tailored to meet the specific needs of Canadian agriculture.
A Legacy of Canadian Innovation
Canada’s agricultural sector is built on ingenuity, adaptability, and a drive for efficiency. From the invention of air seeders to pioneering zero-till farming, Canadian innovators have consistently delivered solutions that improve productivity and sustainability for growers. Soileos continues this tradition—offering a modern approach to micronutrient delivery that enhances soil health and crop performance while fitting seamlessly into existing fertilizer programs.
The development of Soileos was a true Canadian collaboration, bringing together leading minds in agricultural technology, crop nutrition, and engineering:
- Protein Industries Canada: Played a crucial role in supporting research, development, and commercialization of Soileos, reinforcing Canada’s position as a leader in agricultural innovation.
- The Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute (PAMI): Ensured scalability and real-world farm adaptability by refining the commercialization strategy.
- Lucent BioSciences and AGT Foods: A Regina-based leader in pulse and staple crop processing, AGT Foods partnered with Lucent BioSciences, based in Vancouver, BC to form AGT Soileos. This collaboration combines Lucent Bio's innovations in sustainable crop nutrition with AGT Foods' extensive expertise in agricultural processing and the prairie landscape.

Rosetown’s Revitalization:
Together, AGT Foods and Lucent biosciences, formed AGT Soileos, and transformed a decommissioned grain facility into Canada’s first Soileos manufacturing plant—reinforcing our commitment to value-added agriculture and local production. The AGT Soileos Production facility is expected to produce over 5'000 tonnes of micronutrient fertilizer annually, creating 25 local jobs, and boosting the regional economy, while providing a high performance fertilizer.
Soileos provides a strong micronutrient solution and strengthens Canada’s agricultural leadership in an increasingly complex global market.
