This agreement with MGX is evidence of ONIT’s commitment to providing natural, organic agriculture inputs that perform as well or better than traditional chemical products to farmers around the world

ONIT Sciences announced that MGX will serve as the exclusive authorised distributor for ONIT’s innovative organic products across three major agricultural regions.

“This agreement with MGX is evidence of ONIT’s commitment to providing natural, organic agriculture inputs that perform as well or better than traditional chemical products to farmers around the world,” stated Jeff Moses, president of ONIT Sciences. “MGX is a proven performer, with a world-class team and deep connections to major crop producers in each region they serve. We are extremely excited to open these new markets and help support organic initiatives in countries that have been harmed by chemical farming protocols.”

MGX will carry all ONIT Science products, including its flagship ONIT Grow, a powerful bio-stimulant, surfactant and soil amendment that uses all-natural, organic ingredients to penetrate even the toughest plant surface to stimulate plant vigour and yield. Increases in yield have been documented as high as 40 per cent in some crops. Also available through MGX are the company’s ONIT Input Plus and ONIT Input products, which help farmers significantly reduce costs by enhancing the uptake and absorption of any nutrient, fertiliser or other input that it is mixed with.

“At MGX, we are excited about this new opportunity that will be a great extension to our existing lineup of quality products.  From our initial research, we can see that ONIT’s organic products will be well received within the agricultural communities and within the governments,” stated Moe Negin, Founder of MGX Global Trade Canada Corp. “Our mission is to give back to local communities in rural areas by supplying environmentally sustainable products to help our planet and for healthier future generations.”

The Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) are communities which base their livelihoods and food security on their close relationship with their surroundings

The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) awarded certificates to 24 new Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) sites.

The 24 sites, which have been designated by FAO since the last ceremony in 2018, are located in 12 countries, including Brazil, China, Spain, Ecuador, Iran, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Morocco.

At the award ceremony, which also marked the International Day for Biological Diversity, Qu Dongyu, FAO Director-General said that many of the GIAHS had become reservoirs of biological diversity.

“In the context of agri-food systems and rural areas, we need to consider the combined conservation of biodiversity and food diversity. This is the most pragmatic way to raise public awareness of biodiversity.

“Agricultural heritage systems showcase practices that offer solutions to climate change and biodiversity loss, in particular at the local level,” he said.

The Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) are communities which base their livelihoods and food security on their close relationship with their surroundings.

24 new Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) sites are:

Brazil: Traditional Agricultural System in the Southern Espinhaço Range, Minas Gerais.

China: Shexian Dryland Stone Terraced System; Anxi Tieguanyin Tea Culture System; Ar Horqin Grassland Nomadic System in Inner Mongolia; Qingyuan Forest-Mushroom Co-culture System in Zhejiang Province.

 GIAHS, a flagship program of FAO, was established in 2002 to identify and protect important agricultural heritage sites and their associated biodiversity, landscapes, knowledge systems, and cultures. This network currently consists of 74 systems across the world, according to the FAO.
