项目摘要

In recent years, the agricultural sector has been facing significant pressure to increase productivity in order to feed the growing global population. At the same time, this sector is seeking to use its resources efficiently as well as reduce its impacts on the environment and human health. While providing food sustainably is one of the biggest challenges facing today's farms, who rely on the use of pesticides and fertilizers to meet the ever-growing demand, new environmentally friendly initiatives such as natural plant growth promoters (PGPs) are seeing the day. PGPs can have beneficial impacts on agronomic and physiological traits of crops and abiotic stress tolerance, and, improve nutrient use efficiency and produce quality. BioNorth Solutions manufactures three new PGPs known as H5, PGP4 and Resistance Strains that could help increase the sustainability of agricultural production systems through the reduction of synthetic agrochemicals use (e.g., pesticides and fertilizers). While BioNorth Solutions has conducted their own experiments, they lack expertise in commercial horticulture and would like to understand how they should position their product to the sector. BioNorth Solutions is seeking to identify how they should market their products to the commercial horticulture sector given the product's performance to reduce agrochemicals and increase yield. The objective of this new partnership between Collège Boréal and BioNorth Solutions is to conduct an economic feasibility study on H5, PGP4 and Resistance Strains for BioNorth Solutions to commercialize the new products to Canada's agricultural and agri-food sector.

近年来，农业部门一直面临着提高生产率以养活日益增长的全球人口的巨大压力。与此同时，该部门正在寻求有效利用其资源，同时减少其对环境和人类健康的影响。尽管可持续地提供粮食是当今农场面临的最大挑战之一，这些农场依赖使用杀虫剂和化肥来满足日益增长的需求，但天然植物生长促进剂(PGP)等新的环境友好型倡议正在迎来这一天。植物生长调节剂能对作物的农艺性状、生理特性和非生物胁迫耐受性产生有利影响，提高养分利用效率和产品品质。BioNorth Solutions生产三种名为H5、PGP4和抗性品系的新型PPG，可通过减少合成农用化学品(如杀虫剂和化肥)的使用来帮助提高农业生产系统的可持续性。虽然BioNorth Solutions已经进行了自己的实验，但他们缺乏商业园艺方面的专业知识，他们想知道应该如何将自己的产品定位于该行业。BioNorth Solutions正在寻求确定，考虑到产品在减少农用化学品和提高产量方面的表现，他们应该如何向商业园艺部门营销他们的产品。Collège Boréal和BioNorth Solutions之间的这一新合作伙伴关系的目标是对BioNorth Solutions的H5、PGP4和抗药性菌株进行经济可行性研究，以便将新产品商业化到加拿大的农业和农业食品部门。
