About the Company:
Prolific Earth Sciences is a start up in the AgTech space that has developed a field test that measures microbial biomass and provides the Fungal to Bacterial Ratio in soil. The test is read by our phone app that stores all the data and metadata, including GPS sample date, on the phone and in the cloud.
Prolific Earth Sciences was born out of a NSF grant under Dr. Judith Fitzpatrick while at Bergen Community College. Dr. Fitzpatricks background in microbiology and experiences in medical diagnostic testing was combined with her new understanding and respect for the role microbes play in soil health. It took much effort, lots of wrong turns, and much passion, but the microBIOMETER was released for sales in 2018. Since then sales have increased and the microBIOMETER is now sold in 83 countries around the world. In April 2020 the tests was enhanced to ready fungal to bacterial ratio in soil. The team still works tirelessly to improve the test and add more soil information to the platform.
