AgroSpheres is an agricultural biotechnology company based in Charlottesville, Virginia, founded by University of Virginia researchers, that develops bio-based crop protection products built on its AgriCell bioparticle platform. The company uses a single-step fermentation process that produces and biodegradably encapsulates biological actives all at once, giving added stability and a tunable release profile for targeted, non-toxic pest and disease control intended to be safe for pollinators, people and soil. Its first commercial product, the broad-spectrum biofungicide FUN-THYME, is marketed through an exclusive partnership with Wilbur-Ellis and was approved in California in 2026. AgroSpheres manufactures at a biomanufacturing facility in Charlottesville. It is a physical agricultural-inputs business and publishes no developer program, public API, or machine-readable API artifacts.
AgroSpheres is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Agriculture, AgTech, Biotechnology, and Crop Protection.
AgroSpheres’ developer surface includes product news and 4 more developer resources.
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so
Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite.
If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your
provider repo — the
applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/agrospheres: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
