Windfall Bio<\/a> is a cutting-edge startup founded by Josh Silverman<\/a> based in Menlo Park, California, that is making waves in the agriculture, construction, and mining machinery manufacturing industries. With $9M raised in seed funding from a range of investors, including Mayfield Fund<\/a>, Bessemer Venture Partners<\/a>, Breakthrough Energy<\/a>, Cavallo Ventures<\/a>, UNTITLED<\/a>, Baruch Future Ventures<\/a>, and B37 Ventures<\/a>, Windfall Bio is poised to revolutionize the way we approach climate-positive agriculture. Led by founder Josh Silverman, a team of biologists, farmers, and business people are developing low-cost tools that enable farmers to get more out of what they put in, ultimately transforming the agricultural system into an agricultural cycle that nourishes the global population and the ecosystems on which we depend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Windfall Bio’s innovative solution involves “methanotrophs,” naturally occurring soil microbes that eat methane and transform it into bioavailable nutrients for plants, mimicking nature’s blueprint. By harnessing methane, a dynamic resource that becomes a greenhouse gas when not utilized for something useful, Windfall Bio is enabling farmers to transform methane from their operations into rich, organic soil nutrients right on site. Join Windfall Bio in enabling climate-positive agriculture at every scale and making a meaningful impact on the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
