In Antigua's rugged yet vibrant landscapes, Joel Lewis is a man of dualities, leading a life intertwined with farming and music. As a devoted Rastafarian by day, Joel nurtures his small organic farm, while at night he electrifies the Carnival scene as Hardknaxs, his musical alter ego. However, his farming journey took a challenging turn when rising chemical costs and depleted soil threatened his agricultural dreams. Desperate for a solution, Joel encountered SwissX Soil Booster—a groundbreaking living fertilizer formulated by the esteemed SwissX science team, led by Dr. Olof Olssen.

Reviving Roots: How One Farmer Transformed His Land and Life in Antigua
Discover the innovative journey of Joel Lewis, a Rastafarian farmer and soca artist, as he revitalizes his organic farm through revolutionary farming techniques in Antigua.
Caught in a difficult competition with Big Agriculture, Joel realized he needed a natural alternative for sustainable farming. “I looked at everything,” he recalls. “I’m a rootsman, I grow clean. But nothing natural out there was giving me the power I needed. That’s when I found SwissX Soil Booster—and everything changed.”
This innovative fertilizer is a powerhouse for soil restoration, utilizing ingredients like sargassum seaweed and volcanic biochar, along with a genetically enhanced microbial army that includes strains for nitrogen fixation and pathogen suppression. The Soil Booster acts as a living ecosystem, resurrecting abandoned lands with a self-replicating biome.
The benefits of SwissX Soil Booster have been remarkable, reducing irrigation needs by 20% and leading to an extraordinary 740% increase in soil vitality over the past 18 months. Joel's crop yields surged over 60%, especially for watermelon, callaloo, and sweet peppers. The embedded carbon credit token system allows farmers like Joel to gain financial rewards for their efforts in carbon sequestration, further championing ecological principles in agriculture.
With his lands thriving, Joel now focuses on giving back to the community through the Ganja Farmer Festival at SwissX Island, promoting reggae music and sustainable farming practices. This summer marks the festival's third iteration, featuring performances by notable artists and educational workshops conducted by the SwissX science team. “This festival is about more than music,” Joel emphasizes. “It’s about freedom. From toxic food... We are taking back our land, our health, and our voice.”
What began as a quest for sustainable farming became a nationwide movement led by inspired individuals advocating for environmental change. "SwissX Soil Booster is more than science. It’s spiritual technology," Dr. Olssen states. For Joel, harmonizing farming with music has become a powerful expression of his dual passions and commitment to healthier living.
