Pivot Bio is a sustainable agriculture company founded in 2011 and based in Berkeley, California, with additional facilities in Minnesota and St. Louis. The company focuses on developing patented crop nutrition technologies that utilize genetically engineered soil microbes to naturally fix nitrogen for non-pulse crops like corn, wheat, sorghum, and cotton. Their mission is to reduce reliance on synthetic nitrogen fertilizers by providing biological alternatives that enhance nutrient uptake and crop productivity while minimizing environmental impact.

One of their key products, PROVEN®, was launched in 2018 for U.S. corn farmers. It delivers nitrogen-fixing microbes directly to seeds, allowing crops to replace up to 25% of their synthetic nitrogen needs. Pivot Bio's solutions have been adopted on over 15 million acres in the U.S., helping farmers improve yields and lower input costs. The company has received recognition from various media outlets for its innovative technology and has surpassed $100 million in annual revenue by 2023, reflecting strong market demand for its sustainable solutions.
