๐พ Tackling Microbial Pathogens in North American Agriculture with Genomics
The Problem: Microbial Pathogens in Agriculture
North American agriculture faces increasing challenges due to microbial pathogens that threaten crop yields, livestock health, and food safety. Key concerns include:
Soilborne & Airborne Plant Pathogens โ Fungal, bacterial, and viral pathogens (e.g., Fusarium, Pseudomonas, Xanthomonas) that devastate crops and reduce agricultural productivity.
Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria in Livestock โ The overuse of antibiotics in farming has led to the emergence of drug-resistant pathogens that can spread to food products.
Disruptions to Nitrogen Fixation & Soil Microbiome Imbalance โ The loss of beneficial microbial communities due to chemical fertilizers and pesticides leads to decreased nitrogen fixation and weakened soil fertility.
Contaminated Irrigation Water โ Pathogens like Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Salmonella enter irrigation systems, contaminating fresh produce and increasing the risk of foodborne outbreaks.
๐ฌ AGIโs Genomic Solutions for Agriculture
AGI combines metagenomics, next-generation sequencing (NGS), and AI-powered analytics to detect, track, and mitigate microbial threats in agriculture:
โ
Early-Stage Pathogen Detection & Disease Prevention
๐น Using high-resolution genomic sequencing, we identify crop and livestock pathogens at the earliest stages, allowing targeted interventions before widespread damage occurs.
โ
Microbiome Optimization for Sustainable Farming
๐น We develop probiotic microbial consortia to enhance soil biodiversity, restore nitrogen-fixing bacteria, and promote plant resilienceโreducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers.
โ
Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Surveillance for Livestock
๐น Our whole-genome sequencing (WGS) platform detects drug-resistant bacterial strains in animal farms, helping to develop antibiotic-free, microbial-based alternatives.
โ
Smart Irrigation Water Monitoring for Pathogen-Free Agriculture
๐น Metagenomic tracking of irrigation water detects harmful bacteria and toxins in real time, preventing outbreaks and ensuring safe produce for consumers.
๐ฑ The Future of Agriculture is Genomics-Driven. Let AGI help you build a safer, more sustainable farming system.

The Challenge: Microbial Contamination in Food Production
Foodborne pathogens continue to be a major public health and economic burden in North America. Key threats include:
Bacterial Contaminants in Food Production โ Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella, and E. coli frequently contaminate food processing environments, leading to costly recalls and outbreaks.
Biofilm Formation on Food Contact Surfaces โ Pathogens develop protective biofilms in meat, dairy, and produce processing plants, making them resistant to traditional sanitation methods.
Undetected Viral Pathogens in Food Supply Chains โ Norovirus and Hepatitis A can spread through food handling and processing, causing widespread illness.
