Biotechnology (AgriTech)
Research and development activities by seed companies has provided new technologies for increasing the efficiency of crop production by improving seeds and planting materials to meet the fast growing demand for food, feed, and fuel.
The value of the global seed market, is projected to reach $92.04 Billion in 2020, at a CAGR of 9.4% from 2015 to 2020.
This area of agricultural science uses such scientific tools and techniques as genetic engineering, molecular markers, molecular diagnostics, vaccines, and tissue culture, to modify living organisms: plants, animals, and microorganisms.
GCA’s AgriTech division identifies promising developing technologies for the development of heritable variation in many plan species. We focus on epigenetic inheritance. This state of the art technology can play a role in increasing:
- Yield
- Resistance to pests and pathogens.
Our services include:
- Evaluate the potential and the limitations of innovation variation in crop improvement.
- Facilitate research & development.
- Strategic alliances.
- Commercialization.
- Funding.
