MustGrow Biologics Corp. (CSE: MGRO), an agricultural
biotech company developing and commercializing a portfolio of natural
biopesticides and biofertilizers for the cannabis industry, has a mountain of
good news to share with its stakeholders. MustGrow recently issued a number of
strategic press releases that illustrate the significance of the company’s
signature, patented products and the potential impact they are expected to have
on the cannabis industry.
In a July 11 news release, MustGrow announced that it has
launched a biopesticide research and development program with the National
Research Council Canada (“NRC”) (http://ibn.fm/0mRoY). The NRC and MustGrow are conducting a
series of efficacy assessments of MustGrow’s patented biopesticide as a natural
pre-plant, pre-pot soil treatment for soil-borne pests and diseases that affect
cannabis production. MustGrow intends to seek Health Canada approval for its
natural biopesticide for eventual use by Canada’s licensed cannabis producers.
MustGrow’s novel and proprietary solutions utilize organic
components refined from mustard seed to provide high quality, organic pest
control to growers facing challenges associated with soil-borne diseases and
pests such as nematodes. The global economic impact of soil-borne nematodes is
estimated at nearly $100 billion in lost crops per year. The American
Phytopathological Society (http://ibn.fm/iE9cW),
an international nonprofit scientific organization dedicated to the study and
control of plant diseases, estimates that plant-pathogenic nematodes are
responsible for 14 percent of crop losses worldwide.
Health Canada requires mandatory testing of cannabis for a
litany of pesticides and their active ingredients to ensure that
pesticide-tainted cannabis is not showing up in tested products (http://ibn.fm/GisCt). MustGrow’s
pre-plant/pot soil treatment has already demonstrated control of many
soil-borne diseases and pests that affect cannabis production, including
Botrytis (gray mold), Fusarium, Pythium root rot, Rhizoctonia fungus,
nematodes, Verticillium wilt, Phytophthora root rot and Sclerotinia.
MustGrow is also partnering with Triangle Plant Sciences
(“TPS”), a division of Verdesian Life Sciences of Cary, North Carolina, to
exclusively provide TPS’s TP-1000 to cannabis growers in Canada. TP-1000 is the
first product in a suite of researched hydroponic technology offerings that
improve nutrient utilization in support of early growth and optimal flowering,
according to a news release (http://ibn.fm/Ni202).
Through the partnership, MustGrow will first offer TP-1000 exclusively in
Canada, followed by distribution in key registered markets around the globe.
“We are thrilled to enter into a partnership with Triangle
Plant Sciences,” MustGrow Chief Operations Officer Colin Bletsky stated in the
release. “The vision of TPS aligns perfectly to that of MustGrow, and we look
forward to working hand-in-hand to offer the TPS suite of hydroponic products
throughout Canada and, eventually, the world.”
The recent appointment of Brian Quigley to MustGrow’s board
of directors is another impressive addition to the company’s growing slate of
experienced industry insiders. Quigley, who brings over 20 years of regulatory
expertise, brand building, marketing and operations experience with him, spent
the last 16 years at Altria Group. Seven of those years were as president and
CEO for U.S. Smokeless Tobacco and Nu-Mark, Altria’s innovation company.
“Brian brings extensive regulatory prowess, brand building
and product innovation experience to MustGrow,” Corey Giasson, CEO of MustGrow,
stated in a news release (http://ibn.fm/jbKgZ).
“His richly developed relationships in international food conglomerates, Big
Tobacco and the cannabis community will spark powerful initiatives in all of
MustGrow’s agriculture programs.”
MustGrow recently received Canadian Securities Exchange
(CSE) approval for the listing of its common shares. The shares began trading
on the CSE under ticker symbol ‘MGRO’ on July 10, 2019 (http://ibn.fm/LwQZh).
