Bion Environmental Technologies, Inc. Announces Promising Results from Several Growth Trials Using Its Innovative Fertilizer Products Bion Environmental Technologies, Inc. announced promising results from several growth trials using its innovative fertilizer products. Bion's nitrogen fertilizer--Liquid AB--is produced in a patented process from the ammonia and CO2 that are released when biogas is generated from organic waste. Liquid AB is ammonium carbonate/bicarbonate, a nitrogen source with a long history of use in traditional farming. It is OMRI Listed (Organic Materials Review Institute), the gold standard for use in organic farming. Bion's Liquid AB is one of an emerging class of soluble nitrogen fertilizers that are immediately available to plants and will help organic growers increase yields and profitability. A wide range of stakeholders in the organic sector have received Bion's Liquid AB for a variety of growth trials and testing. Initial trials are in three categories: Cannabis The College of Agriculture, Life and Physical Sciences at Southern Illinois University conducted an indoor trial to determine efficacy of ammonium bicarbonate as a nitrogen fertilizer for the cannabis industry. Trial results were published in the July 2025 issue of the International Journal of Plant Biology. In summary, the cannabis plants that were treated with ammonium bicarbonate As a nitrogen source were the tallest overall in the study, with enhanced vegetative growth, increased chlorophyll content, and greater plant height. Tomatoes The College of Agriculture, Life, Life and Physical Sciences atSouthern Illinois University conducted an outdoor trial using ammonium bicarbonate to supply nitrogen for tomato plants. The findings showed the plants fertilized with ammonium bicarbonates had the same level of vigor and production as those treated with conventional (synthetic) fertilizers, as well as two nitrogen fertilizer products certified for use in U.S. organic production. Milo (Sorghum) The research division of BetterFedFoods (BFF) completed Phase 1 of ailo growth trial this month. Bion's OMRI Listed Liquid AB was combined with BFF's A+, an OMRI Listed algae bio-stimulant product, and compared to a control plot. The combination resulted in outstanding growth performance. The trial is being advanced to a more expansive Phase 2 to further evaluate BFF's A+ teamed with Bion's Liquid AB. Bion has also distributed Liquid AB samples to stakeholders in the organic agriculture and consumer products, and energy sectors for testing and evaluation. These include a global chemical processor focused on innovation and sustainability, a large indoor grower of organic herbs and leafy greens, an international energy company, a global leader in organic fertilizer production and distribution, and a major supplier in the U.S. lawn and garden market. Bion Environmental Technologies' patented Ammonia Recovery System (ARS) produces advanced organic and low-carbon nitrogen fertilizers from the problematic ammonia released when biogas is generate from animal manure and other organic waste streams, like food or food/bev processing. Recovering this valuable resource, instead of allowing it to escape to the environment, prevents air and water pollution, produces clean water for reuse or discharge, and improves the economics of livestock and biogas operations. Bion's platform aligns with global trends toward circular economy models and low-impact fuels and agriculture. The company's platform aligns with global trend toward circular economy models and low -impact fuels and agriculture. The Company expects to generate in 2026. Announcement • Apr 09
Bion Environmental Technologies, Inc. Receives Summons by Dilling Group, Inc. Along with Two Other Defendants: The Hamstra Group, Inc. and North Prairie Holdings, LLC On March 31, 2025, Bion Environmental Technologies, Inc. (the Company) was served a summons by Dilling Group, Inc. (“Dilling”) along with two other defendants: The Hamstra Group, Inc. (“Hamstra”), the Company’s primary contractor and North Prairie Holdings, LLC (“NPHLLC”) the property lessor. Dilling is seeking to recover $653,915 in unpaid invoices related to the construction of Bion’s Ammonia Recovery System at Fair Oaks, Indiana. This lawsuit is related to the Notice of Intent to file a Mechanic’s Lien, that was filed March 22, 2024, and has been disclosed in public filings since that date. Announcement • Jan 30
Bion Environmental Technologies, Inc. Supplies Organic Fertilizer Samples to Manufacturers Bion Environmental Technologies, Inc. announced it has now produced samples of its organic nitrogen fertilizers that were sent to several fertilizer manufacturers and distributors at their request. Bion’s premium nitrogen fertilizers are unique, high-value, low-carbon, pathogen-free, and can be used in a wide range of organic farming applications. Samples of Bion AB10, OMRI Listed 10% nitrogen fertilizer (10-0-0), were requested by several major U.S. manufacturers and distributors, with which Bion has been in ongoing discussions. The group includes fertilizer industry leaders with broad geographical reach into both specialty and row crop markets. A new 7-0-0 product was also produced, that is tailored to the western U.S. markets. An application is being prepared to register the 7-0-0 product under the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) organic program. Bion’s nitrogen fertilizers are produced from the ammonia released when Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) is produced from organic waste, like animal manure. This process frees up large amounts of ammonia, more than half of which will be lost to contribute to a wide range of environmental impacts and health risks, including small particulate air pollution (PM2.5), groundwater contamination, and increasingly toxic algae blooms. Ammonia is also released when RNG is produced from other organic waste streams, such as food, food processing, and other industrial wastes, and municipal wastewater. Bion’s proven Ammonia Recovery System (ARS) can capture over 90% of the ammonia, preventing its escape to the environment while maximizing its byproduct value by upcycling it into premium-priced organic fertilizers. In the ARS, the ammonia is isolated, then combined with CO2 also in the waste stream in a patented process. The ammonium bicarbonate that forms is a stabilized and readily-available source of plant nitrogen that can now be transported to where it is needed and precision applied when it is needed.
