INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS IN HIGH YIELD CROPS

Yield10's biotechnology and innovation platforms in agriculture create fresh opportunities for growers, agriculture, and food businesses that want to experience significant economic value, protect the environment, and expand the Earth's base of natural resources.

In fact, we're confident we can double farm production with less land within the next 30 years! Watch the video below to learn how our bioscience innovations can make it happen.

camelina platform

Camelina is our platform crop for producing oil, high-protein meal, and PHA bioplastic. Camelina is also our model crop for identifying new traits that not only improve the yield and field performance of Camelina but also of major food and feed crops.

Our next-generation trait gene discovery platform leverages advanced technology to efficiently mine big data sets and identify novel yield traits. With this predictive tool for identifying smart targets, we can accomplish several key objectives, such as facilitating step-changes in major crops of commercial interest.

novel crop traits

From our omega-3 oil traits to our PHA traits, we have established a strong pipeline of more than 15 novel yield traits for field performance and specialty products. We recently added programs for herbicide tolerance and disease resistance traits for Camelina into our pipeline.

crispr genome editing

CRISPR is a game-changing technology that allows us to alter Camelina's genetic makeup for increased crop yield. By increasing the crop yield of Camelina and other major crops, we are positively contributing to the elimination of hunger in the world, production of higher-yield food, feed, and forage crops, and more.
