Save Foods: Nitrousink Files US Patent Application for Reducing Emissions of Nitrous Oxide in Wheat

Neve Yarak, Israel, Jan. 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Save Foods, Inc. (NASDAQ: SVFD) (FSE:80W), a pioneer in sustainable solutions for agriculture, announced today that its majority-owned subsidiary, Nitrousink Ltd., has filed a patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for its solution in reducing greenhouse gas emissions in wheat. The patent application aims to assist Nitrousink with its mission to target nitrous oxide (N2O), which is a potent greenhouse gas and contributor to ozone depletion.

Nitrousink has identified and isolated two naturally occurring bacteria species that can reduce N2O emissions under various environmental conditions from wheat roots. Nitrousink’s R&D team is currently testing its technology under greenhouse conditions with the aim of finding the optimal formula for reducing N2O emission in wheat crops. Nitrousink intends to continue its testing in micro field plots using different soils, dosages, and formulations for a variety of crops.

According to Our World in Data, N2O, Known as the “forgotten greenhouse gas”, is 265 times more powerful at warming the planet than carbon dioxide. Nitrousink’s mission is to create a solution that can mitigate agriculture’s environmental impact through its innovative technology.

Its majority stake in Nitrousink allows Save Foods to penetrate the carbon credit market. According to The International Market Analysis Research and Consulting Group (IMARC Group), the global wheat seed market size reached US$ 5.3 billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 7.6 billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.84% during 2024-2032.
