We are fortunate to have great commercial partners who share our collaborative spirit.
Our commercial partners are working alongside us from 2023 to 2025 as extend our capabilities into to larger trials.
Australian Soil Planners
10 hectares
2023-2025
Australian Soil Planners are respected agronomists who delve deep into soil dynamics, helping to ground our learnings in science and best practices. This collaborative effort will help to explore the efficacy of Rainstick VEF technology in broad acre cropping applications.
Boomaroo Nurseries
10,000 seedlings
2023-2025
Boomaroo Nurseries are one of Australia’s largest wholesale suppliers of vegetable seedlings to the fresh produce industry. Their vast experience and active collaboration plays a key part in exploring extended applications of Rainstick VEF technology in vegetables and protected cropping.
Arable Field Research
3,000 plants
2023 - 2025
Renowned seed breeders, their expertise in crop diversity brings invaluable insights to exploring Rainstick VEF technology in promoting climate resilience.
In a June 2023, CSIRO (Australian Government scientific research agency) conducted an independent trial on Rainstick’s VEF technology and how it could influence microbial behaviours. The test concluded a significant potential in the technology to influence microbial populations.
“These findings [in the 3rd trial] underscore the significant potential of VEF treatments to influence microbial populations”

We have received so much support, mentorship and encouragement from loyal Rainstick ‘Storm Chasers’ to help us grow as a company focussed on impact.
Rainstick is a for-profit, venture-backed commercial company.
Each major leap forward is an opportunity for new partnerships, supporters and investment. We never forget those who supported us when we first started and are grateful to all those who have helped us to build a community.

“Holy Shiitake”- the photo that changed everything
The “Holy Shiitake” moment will forever be a memory in the history of Rainstick. It was our first successful Rainstick VEF recipe before we started on seeds and other plants. What was thousands of hours of formulas and almost-there experiments, summed up in one powerful image.
