We create productive soils

Biocraft develops technologies to create, restore and improve soils, helping plants grow in challenging environments. We also produce fertilisers and supplements for soil and plants.

Our vision
  • Made in the UAE. Global potential.We produce fertilisers and create productive soils, turning organic waste into a valuable resource.
  • Biotechnology for food securitySupporting agriculture, food security and ecosystem restoration.
  • Scientific expertise. Practical solutions.Combining expertise in biotechnology, fertiliser production and crop cultivation.
  • Tested in UAE conditionsOver three years of field trials of technologies for creating productive soils and supporting plant growth.

Why soil

A desert might be green.

Soil is the foundation of agriculture, food security and healthy ecosystems. In many parts of the world, soil fertility is limited or has been lost.

Biocraft develops technologies to restore this foundation. They open new possibilities for growing crops in places where farming was considered extremely difficult, or even impossible. We started in the UAE, and the need is just as real in many other regions of the world.

One way we create productive soils

In our UAE field trial, we built a fertile growing layer on desert sand using local organic materials and our biotechnology. It was ready for planting in 30 days.

Soil profile from our UAE field trial.
  1. 1

    Prepare the ground

    A 10 cm base of coarse sand keeps the roots from sitting in water.

  2. 2

    Build the living layer

    30 cm of compost, vegetable waste, manure and straw, mixed with Terrabionic, our earthworm-made black soil.

  3. 3

    Bring it to life

    Microbionic, our liquid bioactivator, introduces beneficial microorganisms and stimulates biological activity, helping turn organic materials into productive soil and supporting nutrient uptake by plant roots.

  4. 4

    Plant

    The layer is ready in 30 days. We grew eight crops in it, from wheat to watermelon.

Each project is different. We adapt the soil mix, layer depth and ground preparation to local conditions and the crops to be grown.

Living soil. New possibilities.

The result: black, fertile soil over desert sand. A growing environment where roots develop and plants thrive.
