Sound Agriculture is an Emeryville, California agriculture company founded in 2013 by Eric Davidson and Travis Bayer that sells nature-based crop nutrition products to row-crop growers through an independent dealer network: SOURCE, a foliar-applied soil activator that stimulates soil microbes to supply nitrogen and phosphorus; BLUEPRINT, an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi inoculant; and INFLECT. It also runs an on-demand breeding program that tunes plant gene expression epigenetically without editing DNA. Sound Agriculture is not a software company and publishes no developer program, API, SDK or machine-readable contract; its only authenticated surface is a Salesforce Experience Cloud dealer portal at dealerportal.sound.ag.
