Hydroponics involves growing plants in sand, gravel, or liquid, with added nutrients but without soil. RMS said it feels hydroponics a potential solution for the growing concern about food security.
RMS said the patented nanoparticles have demonstrated to be an improved alternative to common mineral fertilisers, including ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) chelates.
PIC has agreed over the next 12 months to purchase a minimum of 40,000 litres of the eight solutions in the nano.10-9 range, with expected revenue for RMS of around £80,000. However, the company expects this to grow significantly as the market becomes more aware of the benefits.
“We are delighted to have entered into this agreement with PIC which reflects the excellent demand we perceive for Pharm 2 Farm’s high-quality nano particles in the hydroponics sector and also demonstrates the breadth of applications where our nano particles can benefit the end-user,” said Antony Legge, Executive Chairman of RMS.
RMS’ share price is currently down 2.8% at 0.884p.
