The ecologically-minded French startup TOOPI Organics is specializing in the unusual market of using human urine for agriculture.
Toopi Organics has patented a microbiological process to enrich human urine with microorganisms of agronomic interest. The urine, which already contains the NPK fertilizers (Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium), is decontaminated and converted into biostimulants at a lower cost. Studies carried out by Bordeaux Sciences Agro and the Gironde Chamber of Agriculture have shown that TOOPI products are 30%-110% more effective than traditional mineral fertilizers, and can reduce the plant’s need for water.
