Resilience solutions for productive agriculture and land use.

We design next-generation biological solutions from extreme environments to improve plant tolerance to stress and boost crop performance.

Soils are under pressure.
Microbes are part of the answer.

Every year, millions of hectares of productive land are lost due to salinity, erosion and intensive practices. Traditional inputs alone are not enough to rebuild soil–plant health.

Our work begins where plant performance is pushed to its limits — in extreme environments where life has learned not just to survive, but to thrive.

1/3

of agricultural land is already degraded, reducing long-term productivity.

10%

of global soils are affected by salinity, causing billions of dollars in crop losses every year.

50%

of irrigated land becomes salinized.

Biological solution for crop establishment

YAMANA is the first biological enhancer solution emerging from Nunatak’s platform designed for yield improvement and crop establishment, compatible with chemical and biological solutions.

From extreme microbiomes to field-ready biological solutions.

Nunatak’s platform turns microbial diversity from extreme environments into scalable, science-backed biological solutions for agriculture and land restoration. We combine the power of biotechnology with bioinformatics to design functional extremophile-based consortia that maximize agricultural productivity, all in an efficient and scalable way.
