1.2 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
Bioteksa S.A de C.V was founded in 2003, in Jiménez, Chihuahua, México. It is a private company
with 100% Mexican share capital. The company was founded due to the urgent need to transform our
exisiting agricultural systems into sustainable agro-ecological systems, seeking to extend the benefit
to the entire country and to the world.
The company is using a technology that was developed by Dr. Luis Alberto Lightbourn Rojas, which
exceeds the efficiency of the conventional fertilizers, and it was initially approved after its use in the
walnut farms owned by the González García brothers, where this association began and then formed
Bioteksa.

9. Bioteksa began when three people: two fruit growers and brothers, Arsenio and Daniel González
García, successful producers and exporters of the pecan walnut (Carya illioensis) joined forces with
one civil scientific researcher: Dr. Luis Alberto lightbourn Rojas, renowned expert in the development
and manufacturing of bio physical chemical products for the field. Capital Investment and Intellectual
Investment, those were the two factors that contributed altogether for the beginning of Bioteksa.
Something like the cottage field industry, that is, an industrial entity within the property boundaries,
dedicated exclusively to manufactire fertilizers for its own use. The person responsible to develop
the company products is Dr. Lightbourn Rojas, whose formulas are based on the nano technology to
achieve an optimal capacity and use of the vegetable nutrients.
The company makes vegetable nutrients instead of fertilizers. The owners assembled the frst stage
of their plant in the outskirts of Jiménez, a city in the State of Chihuahua. Bioteksa started their
operations with 15 employees, including the Partners and the first batch of vegetable nutrients that
was manufactured in March 17th, 2004. In 2005, the company hired more engineers to work with the
technical sales network.
Currently, Bioteksa has 60 employees working with tehcnology management, solving problems with the
crops, developing our products, and finally, delivering and helping satisfy our client needs. This process
is shown in our organizational chart (Picture 3). Bioteksa has a sturdy structure, each member is highly
specialized in their areas.

11. 1.5 RELEVANT INFORMATION
1.5.1 STRATEGY TO CREAT COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE
The company uses as competitive advantage the model denominated Lightbourn Biochemical Model
(LBM). This model was designed by Dr. Luis Alberto Lightbourn Rojas, together with state-of-the-art
technology and the specialized company team, they make Bioteksa a great company with excellent
competitive advantages. The main principle of Bioteksa colloidal nutrients is the direct incidence in the
preservation of balance: Soil-Plant-Water-Atmosphere (SPWA), both in open field and in the protected
agriculture, due to the fact that the amphiphilic colloids (Bioteksa nutrients) have, among others, the
important function to induce and strengthen the plant’s natural defenses, which helps to reduce the
direct environmental impact. At soil level, the company integrates colloid to colloid, which gives it a
two phase balance that replaces the Stern theory of the Double Diffuse Layer, technology base of
our closest competitors who make the “ultra soluble” products; further more, the majority of existing
products in the market are not even congruent with this basic theory because they are sub products of
the chemical industry that get recycled and used by the plant just because of some coincidence.
Bioteksa nutrients penetrate directly to the root cells through the ionic channels without having to win
the soil’s matric potential with the plant’s osmotic potential that results from the energy spend in the
photosynthesis and the respiration. This situation makes that in the plant, the thermo dynamic balance
are held through open systems, interchanging energy constantly with the environment, defining the
work that was done by the plant in a way that it will bring an energy saving that the plant uses to its
own vegetal and productive development, which results in a minimum energy use because with the
LBM, the plant is nourished by its own survival efforts. In the atmosphere level, the amphiphilic colloidal
products help balance the fluids in relation to the soil atmosphere because it floccules the edaphic
structure, and transforms it into a waterproof surface. At the plant level, this fluid balance is achieved
when the plant’s natural evapotranspiration resistance is reduced because the Amphiphilic colloids favor
the simplest-apoplast transportation with a resulting increase of the active and passive transportation,
which influences directly in the xylematic circulation and the translocation of photosynthesis by the
phloem (acro-basipetal balance), reflecting it all in a circulating and structural homeostasis. As per the
hydric balance, the main characteristic of the amphiphilic colloids is the hydrophilic and hydrophobic
duality in the same molecule, which allows the optimization of the micro hydro fluid Nano circulation
with the consequent optimization of the water resource. The specialized team provides guidance tour
clients to instruct them as to which product they should use, the right dosage, phonologic stages,
special circumstances in the crops, and most of the time, they handle directly with the application of our
nutrients.
10

12. 1.5.2 PRODUCTS
Bioteksa has 48 products (Some of them are presented with Annex 2 Tree of Life according to the LBM)
that were created specially to meet each agro ecological need since our lines are designed specifically
to help our clients to obtain the maximum capacity of each step at their crops, because they have the
proper biophysical-chemical functions and features that will always bring a healthy plantation, from the
seed germination to the fruit.

Thanks to our exclusive Lightbourn Biochemical Model (LBM) and the variety of agricultural and in-
dustrial solutions that we offer, Bioteksa currently has more than 12 thousand clients in Mexico, Peru,
Chile, Brazil, Argentina, and Germany where we provife several solutions to productive categories of
the agricultural industry.
1.5.5 COMPETITIVE POSITION AND COMPETITORS
The technology that was created by Bioteksa, is not only new, but it also unique in the vegetable
nutrients manufacturing field. It has a distinguishing feature that few mexican companies can pride
themselves about: the innovation and technological development that result from the generation of
knowledge that gives us our current position and creates a standard for a new concept that cannot be
defined ir measured under the traditional viewpoint and criteria, because we are talkig about the dis-
ruptive generation of knowledge that brings as a consequence, the creation of brand new products and
some “accidents” (statement that can be proven), which exempts us from paying any rights for using it.
Our company doesn’t have more competitors because there aren’t other companies handling Biotek-
sa’s scientific-technological models. More broadly, we can mention a list of out competitors: Novartis,
Haifa Basf, PEMEX, Peñoles, Cosmocel, Arista, Coda, Agroindustria del Norte, Yara and SQM.

15. 1.5.7 COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE
Ionic Nutrition vs. Colloidal Enantiomorphic Nutrition and its impact on productivity (quantity, quality and
profitability) of the horticultural production.
IONIC NUTRITION COLLOIDAL ENANTIOMORPHIC = BIOTEKSA
Kills the beneficial microbial flora and sterilizes Protects the beneficial microbial flora and inte-
the soil grates mycrorhizae.
Compacts the soil Floccules the clay and balances the soil.
Salinizes the soil Regenerates the clay-humic-calcium colloid.
Damages the stomata entry of the leaf Favors the opercular balance of the stomata.
Damages the epidermis of the herbaceous tissue Protects the epidermis, mesoderm and the endo-
derm of the herbaceous tissue.
Dehydrates the plant cell Favors the hydration and fluid exchange be-
tween the plant and the environment.
Pollutes the water per lixiviation Cleans the water from organic and inorganic
products.
Pollutes the atmosphere by euthesis Favors the fluid balance in the environment,
cleans the air, and optimizes the relation space-
time in particle physics, and in the Born-Haber
cycle.
Bioteksa’s vegetable nutrients strengthen the immune system of the plants and results in more pro-
duction per hectare than the products from our competitors. The ionic nutrition begins at a principle of
dissolution, which implies the use of solvents and dealing with solubility problems of the soil that lead
to a precipitation and agglomeration of salt in the soil, which cause adverse effects, such as: toxicity
of the beneficial flora, increase of energy use when the plant tries to absorb ions and soil erosion.
The result is a reduction of productivity of the agricultural soils in medium and long term. It requires
penetrating, adherents and buffering agents for its foliar incorporation, reducing the evaporation and
transpiration action of the plant, leading it to a state of metabolic repression and hydric stress due to
the impact in the opening and closing of the stomata index caused by the physical obstruction caused
by the adjuvants.

1.6 MARKET SHARE PERCENTAGE
Picture. 8 Bioteksa market share vs competition
As an example, we are showing our position that we have in the vegetable and protected agriculture
market in the Valle de Culiacán, in the state of Sinaloa, Mexico.
15

17. Picture 9. Position in the vegetables and protected agriculture market
Considering the horticultural growers with high commercial value in the selective environment:
1.That it may be a region producer of Solanaceous and Cucurbitaceous with high technology.
2. That the producing surface is in between 100 and 200 protected hectares.
3. That it’s final market is exports quality with highly relevant value in health and economy.
Therefore, we built a squeme to show our market projection for this year in the following scenario:
1. Culiacán, Sinaloa, Mexico
2. Group of 30 producers, sub-group with 6 producers = 20%
3. Final Market
3.1- Minimum production:9,000 packages/ha; maximum 11,000 packages/ha average 15.6 Kg per
package= from 141 to 172 ton/ha.
3.2- Average price: 15 USD per package. Sales: from 13.5 to 33 Million USD
The growth has been applied from Bioteksa vs. Bioteksa because we don’t have any competitors in
the Colloidal Enantiomorphism. Even thou the ionic solutions market is not our direct competition,
epistemologically, in general, there is a migration phenomena that happens due to the use between
producers who consume the ionic production (80%), and the penetration of the colloidal enantiomorphism
nutrition (20%) in crescendo.

19. 2. INTEGRATION OF TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT
2.1 BACKGROUND
Throughout history, the population growth in a town or in a nation has been seen with good eyes
because it means part of its successful politics, power and leadership, however, in general terms, the
world population is constantly increasing and by exceeding by far the capacity of our planet. The World
population didn’t have any barriers. The epidemics, wars and starvation didn’t stop its growth.
Picture 10: Population Growth Graph and Production of Horticultural Food along the years.
18

20. As shown in picture 10, we can see the the population growth projected for 2040 and the decrease
of the fruit and vegetable food production. The above mentioned was the reason for the beginning in
1940, of the Green Revolution, that went from the use of manure to the use of chemical fertilizers.
(Picture 11).
Organic Inorganic
Bulky and difficult to handle Highly concentrated and easy to
handle
Usually have high water content Usually not originated from organ-
and low on nutrients ic matter to soil
Originated in organic matter that Fast release, even though there
helps soil structure are some slow release formulas
Slow release fertilizers Concentrated fertilizers such as
urea do not have micro nutrients
Contain micronutrients Can be formulated for specific
soil, growth conditions, and have
micronutrients added.
They are expensive per plant unit They are relatively inexpensive
per plant unit.
Can compensate the soil char-
acteristics, be that through hard-
ening the soil or making it more
acid.
Picture 11. Difference between organic and inorganic fertilizers
It is a fact that the fertilizers, as they are nowadays and as they are being used, they do no have the
same effect that they used to have 100 or 50 years ago. The soil is too exhausted and saturated with
these substances. Likewise, the old organic manure that are still in use around the world, are not
enough to guarantee the world’s food production.
Bioteksa’s perspective is based on the premise that it is not enough to release fertilizers in the fields for
the plants to absorb, as it is usually done around the world. We already saw before that the old fertilizing
system is collapsing.
Bioteksa saw the need to develop new products that release just the nutrients required by the growing
plants, and that also decreased its environmental impact when applied to the crops. They had to provide
the means to help the nutritional elements get to the cells and tissues that needed them.
19

21. 2.2 IMPACT OF THE LIGHTBOURN BIOCHEMICAL MODEL AS A NEW FRONTIER
This model caused a revolution in the dogma of the fertilizers theory and their durability in the vegetable
nutrition. The chemical fertilizing supporters justified the flaws and success in their use, also considering
that there was nothing else to be said about plant nutrition, they haven’t come up with any new ideas
or comments.
At the beginning, the chemical fertilizers seem to be effective (Pic 11), but afterwards, it is possible
to see how they deteriorate the soil of the growing crops. The constant application of those chemical
products produces a vicious cycle, and therefore requires the application of new similar products to
improve the damaged ground. In long term, this fertilization method is not convenient.
Picture 12. Mind Map Showing the LBM Impact
20

22. With the Amphiphilic Colloidal Nutrients it is possible to capitalize the moment od the synchronized
changes in the crops, in other words, the different growth stages and the development ahead. Thanks
to this technology, it is possible to promote both vegetable growth and metabolism increase, which
allows monitoring the vegetative growth to pass to the generative when it is necessary, or otherwise,
if there is too much generative growth, to change into vegetative growth. Our nutrients become part of
the plants and the soil, therefore, they are not contaminants.
The LBM was designed with a creative and innovative vision, based entirely on science, which impacts
positively the world problem of productivity loss. As we will see later in this document, this method ap-
plies the bio-nano-technology to create molecular structures for the nutrients flow that is required by
the plants. This idea evolved and became the creation of high impact amphiphilic colloidal nutrients for
vegetable feed, and afterwards, it generated the design and development of a great variety products
with high commercial value.
2.3 AMPHIPHILIC COLLOIDAL NUTRIENTS
Picture 13. Foundation of the colloidal nutrition and comparison with salt based nutrition
As shown in the Pic 13, the amphiphilic colloidal nutrients have a composition that can transport all kinds
of essential nutrients. Its small size allows the plat to achieve maximum absorption, which increases its
photosynthetic potential in synch with its respiratory potential.
Just like any other living being, the plants require nutrients, water, light, air, proper soil and adequate
weather. These elements are essential to carry on the photosynthesis and produce all the substances
that the plant needs to grow and produce fruit.
21

23. The photosynthesis is a biological process through which the plants employ the energy of the sun light
and the carbonic anhydride (CO2) to synthetize the sugars, which through the cell respiration become
adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the fuel that is used by every living being.
In nature, the plants obtain from the environment all the resources that they need to grow and reproduce.
In case of the monocropping, the man provides the conditions and elements that are necessary for the
plants to grow, reproduce and produce the results expected by the producers. To accomplish all the
above, it is necessary to provide them with food, that is, with fertilizers.
The regular chemical fertilizers, either the root or foliar ones, get to the plant in a physical state that
generally is not the best to be used as immediate food, or their action is not as fast as the plant needs.
The size of the fertilizer particles is the key to the soil fertilization and its full use by the plants. The idea
is that the size of the particle determines the balanced distribution over the ground, the distribution time
on the soil under certain humidity conditions, and the nutrients release.
Even though the common fertilizers can be retained by the plants in shape of some kind of composite
in its external environment, the size of the entity or fertilizing particle is usually very large, enough
to penetrate through the root cells or the leaf cells. In this state it will be extremely difficult to obtain
maximum absorption efficiency.
The technology used by Bioteksa is based on pondering and evaluation the feasibility to increase
absorption of the nutrients based on the reduction of the nutrition particles size to a nanoscopic scale;
in other words, to reduce the size of the nutritional matter to nanoparticles (1x10-9 meters)
Bioteksa’s vegetable nutrients are composites that contain colloidal micelles of nanostructure. These
nano nutrients have all the necessary nutritional elements to make the plants grow and develop well.
The colloidal chemistry works as a nutrients transfer system.
The bio-nano-technology converts the nutritional elements into nanoparticles, which are small enough
to become part of the plant organism, and travel through the plant’s tissues where they are needed and
to its cells with a distinguished functionality can metabolize easily in every single organelic structure
of the vegetable cell (Pic. 14), and simultaneously go back to the total integration of the congruent
metabolism:
Picture 14. Multifunctional Cell
22

24. Bioteksa’s achieved the development od amphiphilic colloids that have a very important and special
feature, besides the fact that they absorb water and release it little by little, they also have the same
osmotic balanced pressure of a root cell, and they are handled electrostatically and electrodynamically
with superficial charges that can be calculates, planned and handled. The same happens at the foliar
level where the superficial tension is nano tribiologically equal to the leaf’s lamellar tension.
Bioteksa is a young company. In less than 6 years it has managed to launch a processing plant for
vegetable nutrients and create a whole new biotechnological line, win credibility, work with researchers,
farmers, and keep their clients loyal. All thanks to the high quality of our products and the consulting
services that help us be more competitive in different markets, both domestic and foreign.
Since the beginning, Generation, Innovation and Knowledge Transfer Area (GIT) the company hasn’t
stopped producing thoroughly, adding new technologies to the commercial offer. But, above all, thanks
to the generation of its own knowledge and technology package, the company is ready to ensure a very
prosper future.
2.4 BIOTEKSA IS NOT JUST A COMPANY, IT IS A SCIENTIFIC BUSINESS MODEL
FIG. 15 MIND MAP THAT SHOWS BIOTEKSA’S SCIENTIFIC BUSINESS MODEL
23

25. Our scientific business model (Pic 15) is a clear example of how the upper management is involved in
the technology and innovation processes. Everything starts at the GIT Division (Generation, Innovation
and Knowledge Transfer) directed by Doctor Luis Alberto Lightbourn Rojas, which has two products:
BTK (Bioteksa Technology Knowledge) and the BNF Technology (Bio-nano-femto). The BTK generates
the Lightbourn Biochemical Model (LBM), and the Lightbourn Metabolic Engineering (LME), which
operate in cerebrum (original creations) and function in vivo (in the real field), in silico ( math simulation
models) and in vitro (laboratory). The BNF (Bio-nano-femto-technology) generates two products: the
Amphiphilic Colloidal products (bottled technology), which enter the market through a marketing structure
directed by the Engineer Daniel González García, focused on the clients that we call Development
Partners; and the Conceptualized Technology that is comprised by processes and basic knowledge for
the manufacturing of products and complex thought systems for extensionism (sales and knowledge
transfer).
This process generates a cash flow, and therefore it is necessary to have an administrative structure
that is directed by the Engineer Arsenio González García, who is in charge of managing the incoming
and outgoing money, as well as plan the company’s finances and savings.
2.5 TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT MODEL R + D + I = 2i
Picture 16. MIND MAP SHOWING THE TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT MODEL: R + D + i = 2i
24

26. The integrating conceptual model of the Technology Management R+D+i=2i (Pic 16) is based on the
mathematic perception (what the equation indicates is that when we follow the logic order of resolution,
we have a consequent value of 2i= emphasized innovation), therefore the innovation is the main core
and attraction in the function of Bioteksa’s Technology Management, which has an essential paradigm
originated and developed inside the complex thought of the stochastic and fractal nature, which wins
completely all the already obsolete lineal structures of conceptual thought.
The activities are carried out at the Basic Science centers framed by the Vegetal Physiology, Molecular
Biology, Biochemistry, Pure Chemistry, Applied Chemistry, Pure Mathematics, Applied Mathematics
and Biotechnology. All of them carried to its maximum disruptive level.
Bioteksa proposes a new paradigm of and in vegetable nutrition called the LMB, where they establish
scientifically that the nano and femto levels of the matter are essential to know the metabolic routes and
the nutrient design ad hoc on cell architecture and in molecular architecture. They also highlight that the
manure and fertilizers, as they have been used do not nourish the crops efficiently or profitably. That is
because they haven’t been changed ontologically in their essence nor in their accidents for more than
60 years, and they have been bringing a negative impact to the ground and the total ecosystems for
more than 100 years.
The LBM creates proven knowledge in high technology vegetable nutrients, in other words, products that
are Bio-nano-femto technological Biodynamic Colloids Amphiphilic designing enantomorphic nutrients
that are environmentally sustainable, and induce and strengthen the immunodeficiency of the plants
stimulating both its vegetative development and its generating development in a selective manner.
Thanks to the LBM, the company is innovating, developing and validating a technology that translates
into industrial confidentiality, certifications, licenses and manuals, creating scientific and corporate
alliances supported by public and private agreements, with research institutions, academic development
and industrial, such as: CIAD, COLECH, Monsanto, Pioneer, Seminis, Syngenta, Tuniche, La Molina
University of Agriculture, Peru, University of Chile, Catholic University of Chile, Autonomous University
of Chapingo, Autonomous University of Chiapas, La Ciénega University, Michoacan, Autonomous
University of San Luis Potosí, among others. Always proving feedback to the innovation process of the
field products with higher quality and healthier body to people, the environment and with a high financial
profit.
Additionally, Bioteksa is the leader of this technology because they maintain their competitive capacity,
they apply perfectly all the knowledge held by the Director of Generation, Innovation and Knowledge
Transfer. They consider the possibility to adapt to new situations that arise, monitors effectively all its
key technologies and develops emerging technologies that require short implementation periods.
Bioteksa executes systematically the following activities related to the Technology Management:
INVENTORY
Collects available technologies world wide to know all the technology that is being used and dominated
by the company that comprise its technological heritage. This is carried out through their participation in
scientific and technological conferences in matters of vegetable nutrition and through the bibliographic
documentation of scientific articles, campaigns and books.
25

27. MONITORING
Open to the evolution of new technologies, the company has systemized information sources
(membership in data base electronic systems for consult of current articles about the subject of interest)
and the company identifies the possible impact that the technology evolution may have on the company
activities.
EVALUATION
Bioteksa is constantly evaluating the competitors and the technological potential of the products because
as part of their sales strategy, first they offer to the client, demonstrate that their products can solve the
problem more effectively than the other more traditional products, with the same purpose. In this way,
they evaluate the products and once the product achieves the purpose, it goes into the market, when
other problems arise, Bioteksa applies their own technology designing new products that with be latter
assessed in the field and finally transferred to the client.
Therefore, this point achieves is purpose by using the products to solve real problems, through the
agreements and strategic alliances with companies in this field that are interested in the innovations to
improve their production.
ENHANCEMENT
Designing research and development strategies through their research team (Bioteksa Research
Team) that was formed with strategic alliances made among researchers from several institutions:
Center of Food Research and Development (Centro de Investigación en Alimentación y Desarrollo A.C),
The School of the Chihuahua State (El Colegio de Chihuahua)Autonomous University of Chapingo,
Postgraduate Schol (Colegio de Postgraduados), University of Colima, Autonomous University of
Chiapas, University of San Luis Potosí, De la Molina University-Peru, and the University of Ciénega.
These groups validate and support the company’s technology development.
Thanks to this group, it is possible to know what is going on inside the plant, and then we can improve
the use of our products and know more about specific needs of the plants on a certain stage to achieve
the vegetable nutrition that will satisfy the needs of each plant at each stage.
With all the above mentioned, Bioteksa explores systematically the technology potential through:
training programs, documenting the company technologies, developing applications derived from
generic technology and though an effective resource management, and finally, the company protects
its own technology with the policy of industrial confidentiality, certifications, licenses and manuals.

28. 2.6- THE LIGHTBOURN BIOCHEMICAL MODEL (LBM)
Picture 17.
The Lighbourn Biochemical Model (LBM)
27

29. The Lightbourn Biochemical Model (Pic 17) is the alternative proposal for the vegetable nutrition based
in the use of amphiphilc colloids for the transportation of nano particles that can be quickly absorbed
tri-biologically by the plant synchronized with the femtosecond (1x10-15 seconds) which is the time that
biochemical reactions take to be processed in living beings.
It is structurally divided in three parts: one central, left and right. The central part contains the precise
objectives and the practical theory foundation (ptf); the left part contains the description of the
environment model with the intake, analysis and processing the field data, and the right part contains
the Systematic approach of the elaboration of the products and nutrition plans ad hoc (BNF). The LBM
has a core nucleus based on the epigenetic nutrition.
It works based on the QTL (Quantitative trait loci or fragments of DNA closely related to the genes
that has the trait in question) from the genome and it begins to make a complete expression of the
metabolic route. The aforementioned can be accomplished through the mathematical viewpoint, and it
is considered both from the Euclidian and Non Euclidian, in other words, very little lineal, but very fractal
and stochastic.
This model shows the nano and femto levels of the matter to find the metabolic routes and design the
nutrients ad hoc, and knowing the cellular architecture, be able to design the nutrients in molecular
architecture, having as its angle stone, the synchronic homeodynamic of the biological, physical and
chemical relation of the System: Soil, Plant, Water and Atmosphere (SPWA) in a homologic expressive
manner, as well as co-homologically through mathematical control based on multiple calculations.
We have created an entire system to achieve this. From now on, the nutrient is designed to allow the
plant intake selectively through its roots, and selectively through its leaves, since it is not correct to give
the same nutrients using completely different routes.
The model has another information component, which is coordinated with the universities and research
centers. To mention one example, it is possible to ask the researchers at those centers and institutes,
to “please tell me the weather forecast between such and such coordinates, because I am going to
produce a nutrient for the avocados grown in that area”. This is made possible thanks to an expression
model of nutrition programs and the central model, which is the pure and applied biochemistry model.
The creativity has to interact with the reality, and that is how Bioteksa has been able to move forward in
territories that were considered “mined” and forbidden by the regular producers.
The nutrition provided by Bioteksa is a result from the work made by the plant. This is what the company
uses to feed its own learning process.

3. FUNCTIONS AND PROCESSES OF THE BIOTEKSA TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT
a) Surveillance: The specific needs of the field are directly manifested by the client as a problem that
needs to be solved and/or detected after the field inspection, which for us, represents a technological
challenge, and for our clients, it is a great benefit because we are constantly watching their plantations
to create and innovate according to their needs. We begin the state-of-the-art monitoring through the
Competitive Intelligence Monitoring System (CIMS) in the print and electronic media worldwide. We
apply our real experiences according to the LBM. We look for the areas of homological intersection
and congruence applying complex thought systems. This process is carried out by the GIT Division
Director and the Bioteksa Research Team who investigate, create and watch everything closely. It is
worth mention that all the personnel involved with Bioteksa signs a confidentiality agreement to protect
every step of our creation.
Picture 19. Monitoring
30

32. The innovation of Bioteksa vegetable nutrients is a result of the the MBM + SMIC led by the Director
of the Division of Generation, Innovation and Knowledge Transfer (GIT), Dr. Luis Lightbourn, who
identified, revised and integrated the useful scientific information for the Bio-Nano-Femto technological
area of this development of interest. The way that they manage the scientific information consulted is
shown on Pic. 20 where it is indicated that the creation of the product followed the route of search,
selection, evaluation, prioritizing, and organization of the information (mostly from database, books and
specialized papers). The GIT Division Director himself works actively gathering information, watching
for more data and divulging the information within the research team. The company’s technology base
is “Science driven” and not “Technology driven”, because the company uses its own technology to
develop the formulations.
Pic. 20 Model of the Competitive intelligence Monitoring System (CIMS) from Bioteksa as a
permanent technological surveillance action based on the integration of knowledge in basic
science to develop innovative intelligence.
31

33. In general, this surveillance model (CIMS) is a permanent measure to identify improvement opportunities
of the products. The information is shares within the research teams from the affiliated institutions, so
they can feed their work lines, and then apply quickly the new findings in their internal work reports. If
they identify new areas of opportunity, the BRT expands the objectives of the private affiliates to help
cover the new exploration, or in the case of new specialization areas, they try to add new researchers
to the team and carry on the collaboration agreements. To conclude, this data scavenging becomes
continually strong adding the bibliography that the team consults, and make a smart package with
tangible elements and knowledge of the experts network.
b) Planning: Starting with the needs of our clients, we specify the routes, time and movement to design,
develop and send the proposed solution to the field (72-hour model) to which we dedicate 12 hours
working on the design based on our own technology, 8hours to develop and the process of that specific
product, and 52 hours to have the product reach its final destination, which is the application directly in
the field. To achieve the aforementioned effects, we have a effective financial resources management
with two steps: the GIT requests the funds to Finance and gets immediately assigned to the GIT.
Picture 21.Planning
c) Activation: With the project portfolio that was obtained through our planning, we begin to activate
the process, which through the years, Bioteksa has been adding the technical talents to complete it.
Researchers, technicians and specialized personnel for each area. The identification process happens
during the interview with the academic departments at the universities, and the research groups come
from the research institutes. We know their projects and skills, and therefore we use that knowledge to
create synergy with the Bioteksa programs.
Thanks to our own technology, the LBM, IML, BNF procedures are applied to manufacture the product,
which goes directly through the application without previous testing, or pilot tests because oir BTK
knowledge is developed based on calculations for the existence, recurrence and transcience, all of it
certified with the ISO 9001:2008 EMA, ANAB, SGS.
In this function, when we transfer or activate the technology, we apply the Production processes, and
the people in charge are the Operations Director, Finance Director, the General ADM Director and the
Administrative Director.
32

34. Picture 22. Enabling
d) Protection: We follow the industrial confidentiality model and only Bioteksa explores and commercializes
its intangibles because up to this date, we do not grant technological licenses. However, the company
does have an open information culture both internally and externally within the company environment,
we do carry out some protective actions to prevent the disclosure of sensitive information, we are
always careful to preserve our employees. Bioteksa has training programs and awareness programs
to teach our employees about the value of protecting the sensitive information to avoid any accidental
disclosure. The company’s confidential information is classified, labeled, safely kept and managed
by the Division of Generation, Innovation and Knowledge Transfer. The access of this information is
restricted to the Division Director and to their Executive Secretary.

e) Implementation: The Lightbourn Chemical Model (Picture 17) is the alternative proposal for the
vegetable nutrition based on the mathematical simulation of the vegetal physiology and the specific
agricultural and weather conditions. Designing amphiphilic colloids for the transportation of nanoparticles
that are quickly absorbed by the plant. Thanks to this process, Bioteksa created the series Nubiotek
HYPER (foliar) and Nubiotek Ultra (edafic9, which has increased our sales significantly. The people
responsible for this innovation are: Operations Director through the Production Process, the General
Marketing Director, through the Marketing and Human Resources Processes. They both implemented
the mechanisms that linked the product with the client. Their work was based on the following premise:
“ The product must be available. No matter how much, how, when or where.”

4.2 OTHER RESULTS
4.2.1 FINANCIAL IMPACT
After using the technology provided by Bioteksa, the companies generate a considerable financial
income due to an increase in the productivity, an improvement in the quality of their products, some
examples of this can be observed in the plantation of Green Bell Pepper in the State of Sinaloa, Mexico,
where they have achieved a production rate form 9,000 to 11,000 packs/ha; that the average of 15.6
kg per package results in a total of 141 to 172 ton/ha. These packs at the average price of USD 15
per package are equivalent to sales from 135,000 to 165,000 USD per hectare. Increasing 16%of the
productivity in a crop that used to apply other technologies. Besides, the growers invest 319 USD less
per hectare once they start using the Bioteksa products regarding the traditional products. In the case
of the Persian Lime Japan quality, in the region of martinez de La Torre and Tlapacoyan, Veracruz,
the growers generated 2,500 USD more in profit per hectare, per cut, regarding the use of traditional
products.
4.2.2 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Bioteksa’s products for vegetable nutrition are completely environment friendly, because they use the
proper amount of nutrients on the basis of the work that is done by the plant for its smooth enthalpic
entropic balance with a Gibbs free energy that is proportional to the metabolic energy required for the
beginning of the anabolism. This allows a complete assimilative integration of the nutrients for the
live tissue both vegetative and generative. On contrast with the traditional vegetal nutrition that uses
as nitrogen source: 40% Urea and 60% nitrates, from which, in terms of nitrates, the plant only uses
25%, and the remaining 35% stays as soil contaminant, which causes at the biological level, the anoxic
conditions and development of anaerobic microorganisms. At the physical level, the nitrates lixiviate
towards the water layers contaminating the underground water, and for level issues, they move to lower
35

37. parts, producing toxic build-up for the fauna of the river and the sea. From the 40% urea applied in the
traditional products, only 5 % is used by the plant, and 35% evaporates by eutectic process, therefore,
the high humidity combined with the eutectic urea causes skin problems, such as psoriasis, and skin
cancer at the malignant melanoma level. The traditional products use great amounts of sulfates and
Calcium, which is the cause for the Calcium sulfate that starts to form on the ground, better known as
plaster, and its great hygroscopicity increases 485% the soil`s matric potential, and reduces the capacity
for cationic exchange, resulting in an inefficient local system of high frequency, giving incongruence
squemes, such as the chain that is former after using a dropping system that forms a humid bulb,
with a great matric retention capacity that is 485 times more superior than the osmotic potential of the
root. This makes tacitly impossible to have the diffusive pression deficit, which is the physiochemical
phenomena that allows the translocation of the soil’s nutrient to the roots.
4.2.3 TECHNOLOGICAL IMPACT
The company Bioteksa S.A de C.V generates all the technology required to develop their processes
and products. In a way that to this date, the company has 48 products that were generated with 48
different processes, all based on 5 variants of the Essential Basic Model of the Lightbourn Metalbolic
Engineering. All these products were made from biological synthesis and chemical catalysis, then
formulated with the Technology of the amphphilic colloids. All the products ate used in the superior
vegetable nutrition, and this technology improves the quantity, quality of the products obtained form the
plants.
4.2.4 SCIENTIFIC IMPACT
Bioteksa’s scientific impact is resumed in a visionary redimensioning of the vegetal nutrition that doesn’t
follow the traditional fertilizing structure, and there is no doubts that it will be a hallmark for the food
agricultural production of the 21st Century. This reconfiguration consists in a change of paradigm about
the way we feed the plant that is grown by people for their benefit, which stretches the reduction of
nutritional materials through the bio-nano-technology. The vegetal nutrients of bio-nano-technology
origin optimize the soil productivity, reduce the environmental impact, and achieve a greater output
and better quality of the crops. From the chemical fertilizers appeared in the market, going through
the Green Revolution of Norman Borlaugm until the current genetically modified organisms, all of
which has been incommensurably helpful to provide food for mankind. In addition to that, there are
the development of cleverly designed machines for field work, we have come to a stage where the
agricultural production structures are not performing well enough to fulfill the feeding needs of the world
population that is increasing constantly. The population growth has reached 7 billion persons, and in
2024 it will be 8 billion people. Before mid century we’ll reach 9 billion. Also, under the conventional way
to use the agricultural soil, the productive areas have reduced their yield significantly, and yet they must
continue to produce at a high cost; not only financially, but also environmentally. With this scenario, and
to help solve the future problems with the world’s food supply, the BNF (Bio-Nano-Femto) technology
resurfaces not only as an option, but also as a new path for the vegetal nutrition.
A Practical example of the scientific impact has a background registered in the Journal of Plant
Physiology , Vol. 168, August 2011, one of the most famous referred journals worldwide, and in that
article, Renger, T., Madjet,ME, Knorr, A., and Muh, F theorize about how the molecular structure
determines the exciting energy flow in the plant: “The molecular details of the reaction of light-harvesting
and its specific mechanism is still unknown and a current research topic. Knowledge of these details
can guide us in the future to create artificial systems that are capable of converting solar energy into
storable chemical energy.”
In relation to the proposal to the future set by this publication, Bioteksa has been working for five
36

38. years, with the help of Dr. Luis A. Lightbourn Rojas, using the MBL and IML, and has developed the
technological innovation called Optimization Monochromatic Beam of 563 nm for Optimized Induced
Photosynthesis.
4.2.5 SOCIAL IMPACT
Up to this date, Bioteksa has generated 60 jobs, employing personnel from the region where the company
is set, which has resulted in social welfare. It also has a program to help students in internships and
college thesis, who are trained to use the new technologies developed by the company, generating
not only jobs, but highly specialized jobs and substantial remuneration. It has an academic upgrading
program and is planning to help the staff get doctoral degrees. The company participates directly being
represented by Dr.Lightbourn Rojas, Chairman of the Liaison Council with the Productive Sector of the
Tecnológico de Jiménez, for strategic planning in the region and the state of Chihuahua.
Also the engineer Luis Acosta Sabas, Operations Director at Bioteksa, is teaching at the same institution.
It is worth to mention that students from the Institute of Technology of Jiménez have their internship
opportunities at Bioteksa, of which some have been hired and are currently working with the company.
Bioteksa also positively impacts the economy flow of the municipality and the wages are nearly double
the average in the region, even in comparison with the wages paid by the Maquiladora industry, providing
opportunity for growth both for professionals and operators.
4.2.6 SHADOW PROFIT
This value is calculated using a mathematical model created by Dr.Lightbourn by measuring the impact
generated by not applying the MBL, ie the shadow profit given due to not performing the procedure with
this model in a problem of food security, which we can see dimensioned for the existence, accessibility
and safety of supply, in this case, plant nutrition products to impact the existence of the offer, as they
improve the stability of production, regardless of any adverse conditions, with 80% adverse effects of
climate action and without excessive price variations, besides the fact that it has alternative products
based on seasonal variations.
37

39. Nowadays, the technologies used to address problems of agricultural food production don’t consider
the deterioration of natural resources, which imposes a present and future cost to the ecosystem and
society. This cost does not have a monetary calculation, as it is not easy to calculate the value when
the impact index is unknown, but it manifests itself in the long run. One of the foundations of Bioteksa’s
technological endeavor results in higher social welfare that is currently undervalued because it is not
incorporated in the calculation of intangible dividends resulting from the reduction and utilization of plant
nutrition products discharged into the environment (in productive agricultural soils). The production
activities largely follow the structure that was established for the use of resources, goods and services
with negative effects on the environment that reduce the general wellbeing, and it is reflected in the
production of less safer foods because the quality can be compromised due to the health hazards that
affect those who produce and consume them. This non intervention cost has a global impact.
4.2.7 CLIENT IMPACT
Bioteksa develops selective edaphic and foliar products. The edaphic products are integrated into the
soil colloid. Also, they are no strangers to root transport, and this has resulted in an easier nutrition for
the plant.
One of the characteristics of Amphiphilic Colloidal nutrients is their high level of utilization by the
plant, which in turn determines, low field residue build-up. This is why these nutrients are known as
environment friendly elements.
An environment friendly substance is one that is assimilated by nature without causing any damages.
This encourages plants to produce more biomass with high commercial value, since they apply the
nutrients that the plant needs when required by the plant development.
The LBM helps to identify the problem, so that we can integrate the necessary elements to develop an
emerging strategy to provide a solution in 72 hours.
All symptomatic and nutrition problem in crops results in metabolic
pathways and we immediately find the mathematical homological
synergy in order to quickly form a pattern and design an intermediary
biochemical directly involved in the potentiation of the specific route
in generating material with a direct role in the photosynthetic activity
to produce exo-endergonic balances of active energy directed and
sized with magnitude and direction allowing us to make direct use of
vector methods and tensor analysis to refine daily matter formation
following Einstein’s equation E = mc2 where E is directed energy, m
the mass formed (structural maintenance and production) c is the
PAR fraction (Photosynthetic Activity Rate).
The system called Lightbourn Metabolic Engineering (LME) is used to design this intermediate
biochemical and is based on each particular plant species.
Bioteksa generates its own biotechnology and gives speedy solution to problems.
With the help of mathematical simulations the company is successfully designing
the right product to meet the nutritional needs demanded by the producer. The
solution offered considers just the condition being presented because when the
plants achieve a genomatic expression, we have better crops.
38

40. This has been verified in selected varieties produced by renowned seed producers worldwide, which
has been achieved in a high percentage of externalizing the phenotype from a genotyping accuracy
achieved in the laboratory.
4.2.8 PLANT STRESS AS A TRIGGER TO APPLY OUR TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT MODEL

One of the major research topics is the one that revolves around the PLANT STRESS, temperature
stress being one of the most important sources because it is an important limiting factor, and it is the
cornerstone for building basic knowledge that allows us to develop ad hoc technologies and make highly
competitive producers, as in all interactions with living beings, we raise the bar with the commitment
to do no harm and not hinder, this is the basis of circumstantial management with living things of any
kind, cause no harm either to the individuals or to the environment with pretext of correcting a problem.
Not disturb the metabolic pathways and mechanisms developed by plants over millions of years of
evolution. To make it all possible, the knowledge of the reaction mechanisms and their concatenation
in synergy with the delicate and precise metabolic processes that manage the genome expressed in
proteome, and that the transcriptome transfers information for the metabolome and secretome to work
in sync with the changes, and flow rates of the own phases of the metabolic oscillations and molecular
diffusion of the genomatic nutrition, the cornerstone for a planned production of biomass production,
which is the object of the agricultural production in the XXI century.
In the management actions themselves we have described the biological, physical and chemical (BFQ)
ones, which are given in continuum through interaction Soil, Plant, Water, Atmosphere (SPWA) following
the G3 matrix pattern, ie:
Biology Physics Chemistry
Soil Soil biology Soil physics Soil chemistry
Plant Plant biology Plant physics Plant chemistry
Water Water biology Water physics Water chemistry
Atmosphere Atmosphere biology Atmosphere physics Atmosphere chemistry
A G3 matrix is a Sequential Interaction Model “all against all” to identify, define and clarify the functional
variables of the system.
In the detailed analysis we should make as many submatrix as necessary to relational interpretation of
each phenomenon, measuring as many variables (BFQ) of the complete system (SPWA).
The depth of analysis is in accordance with practical needs and purposes, it is advisable evaluating as
many related parameters.
The most important thing is to understand the phenomenon of energy transfer between the plant and
its environment in order to quantify both the free energy as energy reserves, and thus have the right
perspective to address the state of stress without damage or clogging.
Once we handle the energy flows expressed in heat transfer, we must consider the metabolomics
39

41. framed by the relationship between the different chemical elements.
And for this, we’ve established a new frontier called the Tree of Life in Higher Plants (see Annex 2) as
bio-nano-femtology of the LBM (Pic. 17).
The basis of this worldview is to face oxide-reductive phenomena in an infinitesimal space, the HILBERT
space, allowing the algebraic and geometric concepts and techniques applicable to spaces of dimension
two and three to extend to arbitrary dimensional spaces, including infinite dimensional spaces.
5. BIOTEKSA AND ITS TECHNOLOGY
5.1 TECHNOLOGICAL CULTURE
Technological Heritage. - The LMB and LME technology are the technological heritage of the company,
as they are the cause and origin of all the substantive work of Bioteksa because they generate the
theoretical framework under which to interpret the needs and problems of agricultural producers, and
create solutions which are provided in the form of colloidal amphiphilic products.
In Bioteksa, the entire staff is involved in its technology from their first day on, and to make this possible,

balance and harmony in Bioteksa.
Bioteksa is characterized by research, innovation, development and production of high-tech goods and
market them successfully. All in the same package. High speed in generating knowledge, appropriate
level of response to customer needs.
Bioteksa continues to take on new challenges. It is currently working in the field of knowledge, with
the Center for Food Research and Development, AC (CIAD-Centro de Investigación en Alimentación y
Desarrollo) and the College of Chihuahua (COLECH-Colegio de Chihuahua). Among our outstanding
projects in the near future, we include the immunological aspect of plants and technology transfer.
Besides creating strategic alliances with the CIAD, COLECH, Monsanto, Pioneer, Seminis, Syngenta,
Tuniche, Univ Agraria La Molina, Peru, University of Chile, Catholic University of Chile, Autonomous
University of Chapingo Autonomous University of Chiapas, Univ La Cienega in Michoacán, Autonomous
University of San Luis Potosi, Tecnológico de Ciudad Jiménez and others.
“We have no competitors, because competitors are those that do exactly the same as us. We make our
customers competitive “ this is always the opinion of our GIT Division Director Dr. Luis A. Lightbourn
Rojas, and all members of Bioteksa know that for a fact.
Bioteksa has several success stories in its short life from which we select the following:
AGRÍCOLA LICHTER in Culiacán, Sinaloa.
M.C. Carlos Sánchez Avitia
With the development in the tomatoes produced by Agrícola la Flor, we
experienced the historic frost season that happened on February 4th ,
2011 with temperatures that we hadn’t seen in 50 years, we then had to
remedy the damages recovering and accelerating germination and fruit
production. M.C.Carlos Sánchez Avitia
and Dr. Lightbourn.
BONANZA 2001 in Autlán, Jalisco.
M.C Aldo Martini
We revolutionized the concept of hydroponics which was based on salt
solutions nutrition with Colloidal Bio-Nanoponia generated by Biteksa,
which is grown with coconut fiber based elements with the Amphiphilic
Colloids nutrition achieving an increase of 39% in production vs. traditional
saline nutrition.

Waiblingen, Germany.
We managed to germinate and cultivate the arugula in soils contaminated
with high concentrations of nitrates, where it was not possible produce
anything before. MC Aldo Martini with

43. 5.2 RELEVANT POINTS FOR BIOTEKSA’S TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT
It is important to note that Bioteksa has research centers such as the Bioteksa Institute of Vegetal
Disruptive Bio-Nano-Femtophysiology, at the Culiacán unit where we carry out a frontier research in
Glycomics, Proteomics, Predictive Anthocyanin and G Proteins. We also work with the University of La
Cienega in the state of Michoacán with Electronic Microscopic Scanning for Bionanometrics and nano-
tribology, the Proteomics Semiology Unit in the Tecomán campus of the University of Colima, and the
Development Unit and Implementation Technology with campuses in the Autonomous University of San
Luis Potosi.
5.3 REPRESENTATIVE PROJECT OF OUR TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT MODEL.
The positioning of amphiphilic colloidal nutrients in the market has not been easy at all, but we are
managing to solve specific problems for farmland, as were the cases of the “Paralelo 38”, co owned by
the Engineer Luis Muñoz Eduardo Fonseca in Culiacan Sinaloa, exporter of cucumber, red pepper and
other vegetables to the United States, and for the case of Renato Nordetti, grape grower on the island
of Maipo, Chile for the company transandina Chimenti Agri from Santiago de Chile, fresh fruit exporter
to Europe, Asia and North America, among many others.
The world’s largest seed companies Monsanto, Seminis and Pioneer also have approached Bioteksa
to find the solution of specific problems they have with their products, and have tested plant nutrition
biotechnology of our company under high confidentiality agreements . Note that while these companies
are leaders in the creation of high quality seeds, paradoxically the nutritional aspect of plants is not one
of its strengths. Bioteksas’s Colloidal amphiphilic nutrients provide the maximum expression genomatic
potential, vegetative and generative of the species produced by these companies and therefore offer
the most complete and the best proteomic expression.
CASE PARALELO 38
In 2005, the engineer Luis Eduardo Muñoz Fonseca was looking on the internet for a solution to the
problem of calcium (Ca) that appeared in his Agricultural Company Empaque Paralelo 38 located in
Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico, when he found Bioteksa website. He reviewed the information, reviewed the
list of products announced and their technical sheets. Then, he found something that he could probably
use, and thought that maybe the company could advise him and help to solve his problem.
Being the engineer Muñoz from Chihuahua, even though he has been an old resident in Sinaloa, he
noticed that the company was located in Ciudad Jiménez, a place in the middle of the desert.
He called our facilities and contacted Dr. Luis Alberto Lightbourn Rojas, and explained what happened
in an area of his ranch wondering if Bioteksa could assist in this situation. Still a Skeptic, Muñoz first
wanted to have someone demonstrate what the company could do for him.
Dr. Lightbourn Rojas went there and solved the problem. The following year in 2006, Mr. Muñoz
expanded the use of its products in experimental plots in order to test the effect of these and compare
them with other frequently used products. The differentiation of growth, vegetative state of the plants,
and the product quality was a pleasant surprise for the farmer, who then decided to extend the volume
to other plots and keep trying.
42

44. In 2007 extended the Paralelo 38 extended their application area with Bioteksa
products, and again the results were superior to those of other products, and
since 2008 they have only used Bioteksa’s amphiphilic colloids managing
to increase the volume of export quality product to United States, and in
2010 they were certified to export to Europe. In 2011 Paralelo 38 associated
with Agrícola Gotsis (AGSA) in Sinaloa, and have added to this merging
initiative, both the efficient consulting services provided by Dr. Lightbourn
and the successful technology and products provided by Bioteksa.
Importantly, in conjunction with field results, Bioteksa maintained as part
of customer service, weekly monitoring of the nutritional status of the
crops of green pepper, color peppers and cucumber, all supported by
impartial testing in laboratories (for example: Research Center for Food
and Development, coordinated in Culiacán) who were investigating the
profiles of soluble sugars and structural (enzymatic and chromatographic
methods) and phloem sap proteins (SDS profiles-page and 2D) and
micronutrients (atomic absorption). Mr. Muñoz was very interested in the
unconventional Bioteksa analysis used to support and validate the results
of field biomass formation.
Currently Bioteksa maintains constant communication with the group of
physiologists and biochemists from CIAD who have signed a confidentiality
and collaboration agreement to develop research in stimulation of
defense proteins, factors of resistance to abiotic stresses (predictors),
and phosphorylation cell analysis under the direction of Dr. Luis Alberto
Lightbourn Rojas.
The Paralelo 38 case is just one of the many who have been achieved by the Bioteksa colloidal products,
this being the first of the major ones.
6. DESCRIPTION OF THE INNOVATIVE HYPER GROUP
Bioteksa S.A de C.V, presents some of its innovative products: THE HYPER GROUP
43

45. 6.1 COMPANY PROFILE
See Section 1 General Company Information
6.1.1 RESPONSABLE FOR THE INNOVATION
Dr. Luis Alberto Lightbourn Rojas, GIT Division Director, is responsible for the HYPER GROUP
innovation, which is composed by the Hyper Zn, Hyper P, Hyper N, Hyper Ni, and Hyper Si.
‪6.2 HYPER GROUP DESCRIPTION
HYPER GROUP consists of five plant nutrients that enhance the uptake of 563 nm monochromatic
beam and therefore induces photosynthesis optimizing the light serving as a bright reserve at the
chloroplast. This helps to maintain the metabolism of the plant, which results in filotaxic stability, and
therefore, production stability, regardless of any adverse condition being 80% of climatic origin.
These nutrients were developed with the goal of improving energy efficiency in protected systems
plants for production, and successfully achieve a good photosynthesis cast in crops.
1. – Continued uptake and photosynthetic energy transfer because the clusters absorb and store solar
energy.
2. – When the metabolism is not interrupted because of darkness, there are no delays in the formation and
maintenance of plant tissue, which means the end of metabolic delays and its consequential structural,
metabolic, energy and homeostatic flaws that directly affect the quantity and quality of biomass of high
commercial value (fruit), and the high value sustainable biomass (structure and plant body).
3. - This is directly reflected in economic impact for both the environment and the producer, their work
flow system, and the end consumer market, who gets a healthy, free of contaminants product with
excellent shelf life.
