Summa Biotechnologies Corporation is at the forefront of cutting edge innovation in the world of biotechnology. Our journey is driven by the belief that simplicity and efficiency can coexist with advanced mechanized solutions. We are a team of passionate biotech enthusiasts, laboratory specialists & researchers, consultants, and field technicians, dedicated to redefining the boundaries of what's possible in Agricultural Biotechnology, most especially in Sugarcane. Our commitment to excellence and creativity powers our mission to make complex processes accessible and effective to all the farmers and planters. Our company boasts over more than a decade of extensive research, successful testimonials, authentic reviews, and scientific validation by Sugarcane planters and farmers in the Haciendas of Negros. Moreover, we've also ventured into developing mechanized farm equipment designs, and system tailored to enhance productivity and efficiency on these farms, which have shown remarkable results. In 2010, our company engages in the production of Microbial Preparations for use in Agriculture, began distributing to selected clients in Negros, ChemBreak - our inoculant for Sugarcane. For several years, we have patiently collated our production data and have come up with a Sugarcane Production Protocol which has allowed our clients to become very successful. Essentially what happens is that when the protocol is utilized, the use of chemical fertilizers is reduced by about 30 to 35% while at the same time, yield is increased by 30 to 40%. In addition, more importantly a 'bonus', while the user of the technology immediately realizes these benefits, the soil quality is also improved such that in a period of 4 to 5 years the soil is rehabilitated. This means that there will be more reductions in the use of chemical fertilizers, and

Summa Biotech is your trusted partner in the pursuit of groundbreaking biotech solution leading the way towards sustainability and global competetiveness. We combine advanced technology with a commitment to excellence, helping you achieve your goals in Agriculture efficiently. which is a wholly Filipino owned company, was organized in 1993 in response to the need of a sister company and other agribusiness enterprises for more cost efficient and environment friendly livestock and fish feed through the incorporation of probiotics and other biotech products. In 2001, Summa developed the technology to tap marine resources when it began to manufacture and operate open-water marine fish cages designed to withstand adverse weather conditions. In the latter part of 2002, Summa temporarily suspended operations to retool its manufacturing facilities, rationalize its investments, improve its efficiencies and refocus its resources towards biotechnology. In 2005, in line with the government’s thrust to increase food production in rice, corn and vegetables, Summa conceived of and implemented programs supported by the Department of Agriculture in Caraga Region to disseminate information and distribute biotechnology based inputs designed to rehabilitate farmlands and enhance productivity. These programs resulted in the immediate reduction by fifty percent (50%) of the application of inorganic based fertilizers and an increase in production by at least twenty percent (20%) in over 30,000 hectares of rice lands for a period of two (2) years. In 2006, Summa began to conduct research and development of biotechnology based production systems for sugarcane. This endeavor required the establishment of sugarcane experimental farms in Bukidnon Province. By 2008, Summa succeeded in developing the technology as well as the field protocol for sugarcane that includes soil rehabilitation concurrent with sugarcane production. This technology enables the sugarcane farmer to immediately reduce the application of the recommended rate of inorganic forms of fertilizers by forty to fifty percent (40-50%), and based on national average of 60 tons per hectare, increase production by at least fifty percent (50%). The protocol also included the concurrent rehabilitation of the soil without a significant increase in production cost. This technology has been introduced and utilized in selected large sugarcane farms since 2008 in the provinces of Bukidnon, Cebu and Negros Island. In order to efficiently serve the requirements of farmers relative to biotechnology based inputs and technologies in Mindanao as well as the Visayas, Summa in 2013 began the construction of a Biotech facility which includes an integrated research and production facility in Bukidnon Province. These facilities are housed in a three (3) hectare area. The research objectives of this facility are to develop newer technologies designed to further increase farm production. Ongoing research includes increasing production of sugarcane in small landholdings located in rain-fed areas to one hundred fifty tons per hectare (150 t/ha.) at fifty to seventy percent (50-70%) of the recommended dose of inorganic fertilizers. This rate of production is more than double the national average. The initial results to this end have been encouraging and strongly indicate that the objective is attainable. All technologies for sugarcane developed in this facility were implemented in company operated sugarcane fields consisting of 30 hectares located in highland, midland and lowland areas prior to final dissemination to the sugarcane planter. As of now the company has the capability to manufacture 1.2 M units of inooculants – enough to supply 240,000 hectares of rice and corn lands and 20,000 hectares of sugarcane fields. Summa continues to engage in expanded research and is now in the final stages of product development of several production enhancing technologies. These new product lines which will soon be introduced into the market forms part of Summa’s continuing commitment to assist the Filipino farmer in his quest for improved efficiency, increased productivity and most of all sustainability.
