Based in Woburn, Massachusetts, Agrivida is an agricultural biotechnology company that develops enzyme solutions embedded directly into animal feed to improve livestock nutrition and reduce environmental impact. The firm utilizes its proprietary INTERIUS technology to grow feed additives inside corn kernels, helping commercial poultry and swine producers reduce feed costs and enhance overall nutrient absorption. Prior to its strategic acquisition, the enterprise operated with a workforce of 21 to 50 employees and successfully raised over $85 million in venture capital funding across multiple investment rounds. Agrivida received financial backing from notable institutional investors including ARCH Venture Partners and Cultivian Sandbox Ventures before being fully acquired by animal nutrition provider Novus International in early 2023. The biotechnology company was originally founded in 2003 by Massachusetts Institute of Technology scientists R. Michael Raab and Jeremy Schley Johnson.
