We’re thrilled to announce that our subsidiary, Discovery Seed Labs, in collaboration with BASF Canada Inc, has developed a groundbreaking molecular assay to detect Group 11 resistance in anthracnose disease affecting lentil crops. This innovation is a game-changer for lentil growers, especially in Saskatchewan, where a staggering 99% of sampled fields show some level of resistance. This new tool empowers farmers with precise data to make informed decisions on disease management, ultimately leading to higher yields and reduced costs. At Above Food, we’re committed to advancing disruptive agricultural solutions that support our mission of creating a healthier world—one seed, one field, and one bite at a time.
