Edible Garden Announces Favorable Preliminary Results from USDA & EPA Supported Brisea Nanobubble Demonstration Project
06 February 2025 - 1:00AM
Edible Garden AG Incorporated (“Edible Garden” or the “Company”)
(Nasdaq: EDBL, EDBLW), a leader in controlled environment
agriculture (CEA), locally grown, organic, and sustainable produce
and products, today announced the preliminary results of Brisea
Group Inc.'s Nanobubble Demonstration Project at the Company’s
Belvidere, New Jersey facility. Conducted in partnership with
Brisea, the New Jersey Commission on Science, Innovation, and
Technology (CSIT), and the New Jersey Institute of Technology
(NJIT), the project has demonstrated significant improvements in
crop yield, efficiency, and sustainability.
Nanobubble technology works by enhancing water
oxygenation, improving nutrient uptake, and strengthening pathogen
control. The demonstration at the Company’s facility has confirmed
previous findings from the USDA and EPA, showing that nanobubbles
improve plant uniformity, accelerate growth, and create a healthier
root environment.
Key Findings from the Nanobubble
Trial:
-
Up to 55% increase in yield compared to traditional irrigation
methods
-
30% reduction in harvest cycle time, allowing for faster
production
-
Enhanced plant health, including reduced biofilm in irrigation
systems and stronger root development.
"These preliminary results reinforce our
confidence in the transformative potential of nanobubble technology
to revolutionize sustainable agriculture,” commented Jim Kras, CEO
of Edible Garden. “The noteworthy increases in yield and reductions
in harvest cycle time demonstrate the tangible benefits of this
cutting-edge innovation, aligning perfectly with Edible Garden’s
mission to optimize controlled environment agriculture while
maintaining our Zero-Waste Inspired® farming principles."
"By integrating nanobubble technology into our
irrigation systems, we are not only improving efficiency but also
reducing resource consumption, which is critical in today’s
agricultural landscape. This technology enhances water and nutrient
delivery while simultaneously addressing key challenges such as
biofilm buildup and root health—factors that directly impact plant
vitality and productivity. The fact that the equipment payback
period is under three months makes this an incredibly attractive
and scalable solution for growers everywhere."
"As we move forward, we are excited to continue
working with Brisea, CSIT, and NJIT to further validate and refine
this promising technology. Our mission is to drive innovation in
sustainable farming, advancing solutions that strengthen food
security, reduce environmental impact, and deliver fresher,
cleaner, and more responsibly grown produce to consumers. We look
forward to exploring ways to expand the application of nanobubbles
across our operations and beyond, as we strive to set new industry
standards for efficiency, sustainability, and food safety."
