On farm

Professionals with over 20 years of experience in agribusiness created SoluBio in 2016. From the beginning, the company’s focus was to bring its customers more sustainable and economical alternatives in rural activity.

The company created a platform for the production of bioinput on the farm for its own use with an industrial standard, called Solubio Experience 3.0, which has: LabFarm; BioFábrica OnFarm; SoluFarm; and OnFarm Support.

SoluBio has one of the most complete bioinput factory in Latin America, with pharmaceutical production standards, being the first biological company in the country to have a Customer Success team.

Today, with almost 500 employees and a scientific team of at least 20 PhD’s, the company is present in much of the national territory with the mission of bringing sustainability to agribusiness.

SoluBio is a company committed to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, whose big dream is to democratize OnFarm Biological Management globally.
