TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / September 22, 2022 / Toronto-based CO2 GRO Inc. (“CO2 GRO“) (TSXV:GROW)(OTCQB:BLONF)(Frankfurt:4O21) is excited to announce that its Corporate Development Manager Dil Vashi will be speaking at gasworld’s CO2 Summit in Chicago.

The event is being held at the Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile with the support of several exhibitors, sponsors, and delegates. Passes to the event sold out soon after going on sale.

With leading publishing house gasworld organizing the event, several prominent leaders in the agriculture and agtech space were drawn to speak at the event, including Compressed Gas Association President & CEO Rich Gottwald and Illinois Craft Brewers Guild Executive Director Ray Stout.

Given the importance of CO₂ in the agriculture space, CO2 GRO’s Dil Vashi was invited to present at the CO2 Summit. The topic for Vashi’s presentation is “Enhancing Global Food Production with CO₂“.

Vashi will focus on the positive effects of CO2 GRO’s technology in enhancing food production and the importance of optimizing CO₂ delivery for covered crop growers in an era where there’s a constant need to boost yield and volume-of-produce-per-hectare. Optimizing CO₂ delivery also directly contributes to reducing a covered crop facility’s usage of CO₂ – by up to 95% – which goes a long way in reducing costs and delivering results to meet sustainability goals.

“I’m excited to be at the CO2 Summit,” said Vashi. “There is a strong presence of potential partners at the event who can appreciate the value of what we do. By leveraging gasworld’s platform, I hope we’ll be able to share some new ideas with delegates and open up avenues for conversations about synergistic growth.”

CO2 GRO’s presence at recent events has drawn significant interest from all kinds of stakeholders. Given the scale of gasworld’s event, CO2 GRO hopes to reach a wide audience – who will all be thrilled to see the volume of impressive trial data and customer testimonials the company has recently gathered, the work it is doing at its research center, and more.

About CO2 GRO Inc.

CO2 GRO Inc. is a People, Planet, and Prosperity-focused precision ag-tech, clean-tech company.

We are on a mission to transform 600-billion sq. ft. of protected fruit & vegetable growth facilities so they can increase yield by 30% and feed half a billion more people around the world.

Our proprietary technology mists an aqueous CO₂solution directly onto plants in protected growth facilities. This enriches crops with CO₂, suppresses the growth of micro-pathogens, and increases high-yield, high-quality varieties of produce. Because our CO₂Delivery Solutions technology replaces atmospheric gassing, growers can lower their CO₂ gas consumption by over 90%, reduce their ecological footprint, and lower production costs.

We support the protected food crop community in all seven continents and also work with floriculturists and growers of medicinal & non-food varieties of plants.

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIERE / June 13, 2020 / Toronto based CO2 GRO Inc. (“CO2 GRO“) (TSXV:GROW)(OTCQB:BLONF)(Frankfurt:4021) is excited to share the results of the CO2 Delivery Solutions trial deployed at a Colombia rose greenhouse commercial facility that commenced in December 2021.

The first Colombia rose trial is spearheaded by a leading global industrial CO2 gas supplier (“Gas Supplier“) whose identity remains confidential at this time along with the name and location of the rose grower facility.

CO2 GRO is proud to share that in the four months that the study initially ran for, a total rose production increase of 8% has been observed. More importantly, high-grade high value roses realized a 21% production increase. High-grade roses are over 55 cm in stem length and have 6 cm wide flower buds.

Further, treated rows of rose plants in the greenhouse facility also saw a 75% reduction in powdery mildew spread compared to the control group.

The trial is set to continue until the end of 2022.

“The trial has proved that our value proposition goes beyond simply increasing plant yields. Our CO2 Delivery Solutions technology helped increase the percentage of high-grade high value roses also. Our technology could benefit protected growers of other types of flowers, fruits, vegetables and other plants such as medicinal, to realizer greater value for a higher percentage of high-quality plants grown – enabling higher gross margins,” said Aaron Archibald, VP Sales and Strategic Initiatives.

“We expect results from the second phase of this rose trial to improve with refined protocols. We also look forward to replicating these initial results at our second Colombian rose trial and a first Ecuador rose trial that we expect to commence soon.”
