Local Liquid is a liquid disposal company based in the Eyre Peninsula. The company has been researching ways to reduce the local cost of disposing of trade waste, so local businesses are not at a disadvantage against their Adelaide based counterparts. This waste then contributes to several new products that enhance plant production and builds on a local circular economy model.

Local Liquid is partnering with a new company Nautical Secret to reuse as much locally produced waste as possible to create an antifungal product without the toxicity of chemical fungicides to for use in the agricultural sector. They have formed this partnership for three reasons:

1. There are currently no environmentally sustainable /cost-effective methods for trade waste on the Eyre Peninsula.
2. Fungal diseases in agriculture is a worldwide problem with fungicide sales estimated around US$13.41 billion annually and rising.
3. The current use of antibiotics in the intensive livestock industry is a major concern, creating antibiotic-resistant superbugs. If we continue with current livestock practices, antibiotic resistance can lead to a potential bacteria pandemic with a mortality rate far greater than a viral pandemic. Fish scales, oyster and mussel shells, when cultivated with a group of beneficial bacteria, is a microbial cocktail that may replace antibiotics in livestock and poultry operations.
