Growing Nuseed Carinata on existing farmland (after main crop harvest and before next season’s planting when fields are typically bare and exposed to erosion and carbon loss) helps protect land, sequester carbon, regenerate soil, and improve conditions for the following main crop.
Sustainable farming practices used to contract grow Nuseed Carinata are documented, independently certified and audited. The harvested non-food grain is crushed for lower carbon oil to replace fossil oils and the remaining meal supplies a plant-based non-GMO high protein co-product.
Contract production in combination with the Nuseed Value Chain enables many of the advantages of a vertically integrated supply chain for end-use customers, without the infrastructure and expense.
Nuseed Carinata is a non-food drop-in solution that helps replace fossil fuels to lower emissions and maximize GHG savings with certified:
Nuseed Carinata plants remove carbon from the air and the roots restore it to the soil.
This helps:
Nuseed Carinata improves farm income through:
For the first time, the EU has added to the list of feedstocks in Annex IX of the Renewable Energy Directive (RED)— including intermediate crops and cover
Biofuels International recently interviewed Nuseed’s Head of EU Policy, Andre Paula Santos about Nuseed’s role as an agriculture innovator in the biofuels space. Andre will
