Yield10 Bioscience, Inc. (Nasdaq: YTEN) is a pioneering agricultural bioscience company focusing on the development of cutting-edge technologies for significant improvements in crop yield within the United States and Canada. Founded in 1992 and headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts, Yield10 leverages advanced genetic engineering to develop high-value traits in seeds, targeting the agriculture and food industries through its Trait Factory. The company has a dedicated oilseed development center in Saskatchewan, Canada.
The core mission of Yield10 is to harness the genetic potential of the oilseed Camelina sativa ('Camelina') for the production of sustainable seed products. These products include feedstock oils for renewable diesel and sustainable aviation biofuels, omega-3 (EPA and DHA+EPA) oils for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and aquafeed applications, and future plans for PHA biomaterials to be used as biodegradable bioplastics.
Yield10’s research initiatives are bolstered by strategic partnerships with industry giants such as Bayer AG for soybean traits, Forage Genetics International, LLC for forage sorghum traits, J. R. Simplot Company for potato traits, and GDM Seeds Inc. for evaluating yield traits in soybeans. These collaborations underscore the company’s commitment to innovation and broadening the impact of its technologies.
Significant recent milestones include the development and successful field testing of proprietary winter Camelina varieties engineered for herbicide tolerance. These varieties showed promising results in tolerating glufosinate and Group 2 herbicides, which are crucial for managing weeds and ensuring high yield in crop rotations across North America. This advancement is expected to facilitate the large-scale adoption of Camelina for biofuel and omega-3 oil markets, with the potential for commercial production as early as 2025.
Regulatory progress has been a key aspect of Yield10’s strategy, with USDA-APHIS determining that its genetically engineered Camelina traits are not subject to certain regulations, allowing for expanded planting and breeding in the United States. Additionally, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency has cleared Yield10's E3902 Camelina, which features enhanced oil production and a lighter seed coat.
Yield10 continues to build on its commercial and regulatory achievements, exemplified by the recent agreement with Vision Bioenergy Oilseeds to license Camelina varieties for biofuel feedstock production. This collaboration aims to support the growing demand for low-carbon intensity feedstock oil, aligning with global decarbonization goals.
