Crop protection and fumigant companies

Gradient works with companies developing and stewarding fumigants, fungicides, nematicides, and related chemistries, helping make sense of vegetation, soil, and microbiome responses across trials and geographies.

  • Product and program comparisons across sites and seasons
  • Integration of microbiome, soil, and vegetation metrics
  • Evidence synthesis for internal decision-making and stewardship

Agricultural research teams and growers

From research farms to commercial operations, many teams generate valuable data but lack the bandwidth to fully analyze or interpret it. Gradient helps turn that data into insights that guide management decisions.

  • Trial design and analytics for new practices and products
  • Ecophysiology-focused interpretation of vegetation response
  • Climate and pest risk assessments for planning and adaptation

Biotech and microbiome platforms

Sequencing and microbiome platforms generate rich datasets. Gradient specializes in connecting those outputs to vegetation and agronomic outcomes in a clear, quantitative way.

  • Linking microbial taxa and functional scores to vegetation and yield
  • Response ratios and time-series analysis across chemistries and sites
  • Visual and statistical summaries tailored for R&D and commercial teams

Ecology and environmental science groups

With roots in ecophysiology and ecosystem science, Gradient also supports projects that focus on vegetation, climate, and environmental gradients beyond strictly agricultural settings.

  • Common garden and trait–climate analyses
  • Species and vegetation distribution modeling
  • Integration of field measurements with climate and remote-sensing data
