LAMP can detect crop disease before symptoms show. Why isn't it on every farm? A 2026 review: the gap is the step from "laboratory method" to "reliable tool for the field."
Novus: crude sample, no lab equipment, under 30 minutes.

Pests and pathogens take between 17 and 30% of the world's major crops every year.
One obstacle to testing on the farm is sample preparation.
Novus removes it. Crude sample direct. No extraction step. No lab equipment. Under 30 minutes.

Molecular testing used to need a lab and someone trained to run it. Most farms have neither. Novus needs neither. Crude sample direct, no extraction step, no lab equipment, results in under 30 minutes. On farm with @DenningtonHall

Novus was built in the lab. It was never meant to stay there.
Crude sample, direct. No extraction step. No lab equipment. A result in under 30 minutes, at the point where the call gets made.
Made in the lab. At home in the field.
