Indigo core values and company principles

Every day we align around our mission to harness nature to help farmers sustainably feed the planet, pursuing progress in agriculture by aligning with our many stakeholders to unlock potential by questioning what is possible. We always strive to do what’s right for people and the planet.

Indigo started with the hypothesis that microbes living inside of plants are vital to their health

Introducing Indigo

Our challenge is two fold: we must increase our planet’s capacity to produce food, and we must do so in a sustainable and responsible manner that complements while gradually replacing the technologies that are responsible for much of our recent gains.

Our progress

We're working to reimagine the agriculture system - from soil to sale. See the progress being made toward creating a more beneficial agriculture system for people and planet.

Why the name "Indigo?"

Indigofera, the crop genus from which indigo is derived, has a rich agricultural history – one that embodies our ambitious goals and values as we strive to help improve farming and our foods. This history resonated with us, and elements of our own research also pointed us to the name.

The Indigo culture

At Indigo, we are committed to being a motivating and healthy place to work. Watch this video to learn more about what it's like to work here.
