Overview

Smart Earth Seeds is a vertically-integrated plant-breeding company in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, focused on developing high-omega meal and oil products from its proprietary camelina genetics platform. Its camelina products are positioned as a sustainable source of ALA with a favorable Omega3:Omega6 ratio and are rich in vitamin E and natural antioxidants. The company has generated over $1 million in sales, including significant revenue from the aquafeed industry, and has received Canadian Food Inspection Agency approvals for camelina meal in poultry feeds and camelina oil for salmon and trout. Established markets include poultry, aquaculture, companion pets, equine, cattle and dairy, and several cosmetics customers using camelina oil. Smart Earth plans to release new varieties offering non-GMO herbicide resistance, larger seed size, and improved Omega3:Omega6 ratios, and is executing a 2017 production and marketing plan. Its plant-breeding activities aim to maximize yield and profitability for farmers and diversify revenue streams across feed and high-margin consumer applications.
