WHO WE ARE
We are developing superior camelina varieties to produce PHA bioplastics, low-carbon index feedstocks for renewable diesel biofuel, and land-based Omega-3 DHA and EPA oils.
ABOUT USThe commercialization plan for our proprietary, non-commodity Camelina varieties targets 3 markets: Camelina oil for use as a low-carbon biofuels feedstock, Camelina meal for use in animal feed & PHAs produced in Camelina seed for use as a biodegradable bioplastic.

Land-based omega-3 fatty acid oils to replace diminishing world supplies of fish oil for aquaculture
Yield10 uses its Trait Factory platform to increase photosynthesis in crops and extract more carbon (CO2) from the air
HARVEST THE BENEFITS
Bio-based, biodegradable bioplastics for feed, water treatment, and plastic waste reduction
Increased organic carbon content for farming soil
Performance traits that increase yield per acre for major crops
This fixed carbon is targeted to increase seed yield and oil content, produce new seed products, and increase soil carbon deposits
WHAT MAKES CAMELINA AN IDEAL CROP CHOICE?
HIGH TECHNOLOGY UPSIDE POTENTIAL
As an underdeveloped crop, Camelina has high technology upside potential to improve agronomics, including herbicide tolerance, and fill the need for a scalable, low-carbon cover crop.
CAMELINA PLATFORMMORE THAN 15 NOVEL YIELD TRAITS CURRENTLY IN RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
GRAIN & The Trait Factory
We wouldn't be able to discover novel yield trait genes to produce higher-value sustainable products in Camelina and other major food and feed crops without the Gene Ranking Artificial Intelligence Network (GRAIN)—our big data mining technology that stands at the core of our Trait Factory.
Seed Yield Trait C3003
Based on GRAIN modeling, we believe that C3003 reduces the well-understood yield losses that occur through photorespiration, a side reaction of photosynthesis in C3 crops based on early positive results.
The Omega-3 (DHA+EPA) Oil Trait
In collaboration with the Rothamsted Institute, engineered Camelina lines that produce approximately 20% of EPA + DHA fatty acids, similar to the composition of Northern Hemisphere fish oil, have been developed.
PHA Traits: C3014 and C3015
The stability of Camelina seeds at ambient temperatures allows them to be readily harvested, transported, and stored prior to processing, making them the ideal site in a plant for producing PHA biomaterials.
