Ag Stock News Bite - Yield10 Bioscience, Inc. (Nasdaq: YTEN) Rises on USDA News

 

March 21, 2024 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com (www.investorideas.com) Ag Stock News Bites - Yield10 Bioscience, Inc. (Nasdaq:YTEN), an agricultural bioscience company has made the NASDAQ top gainers list on news, trading at $0.4514+, gaining $.2084 or 85.7613%. The stock had a morning high of $0.719 on volume of over 100 Million.

Yield10 Bioscience today announced that USDA-APHIS's Biotechnology Regulatory Services ("BRS") has determined that Yield10's Camelina sativa ("Camelina") varieties developed using genetic engineering (modified Camelina) to produce omega-3 fatty acids are not subject to the regulations under 7 CFR part 340, and may be grown and bred in the United States. The global markets for omega-3 fatty acids include aquafeed used for salmon and trout farming, pet feed, baby formula, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical products. Most omega-3 fatty acids are produced from ocean-caught fish. Production constraints and supply volatility of traditional fish oil sources are creating gaps in supply and driving the growing demand for new sources of omega-3. Utilizing Camelina as a land-based production platform has the potential to provide a new, reliable supply for omega-3 fatty acids. Yield10's submissions along with the USDA-APHIS BRS responses are posted on the USDA's website.

"This regulatory milestone represents a critical step for enabling the ramp-up of Camelina planting to commercial scale in the U.S for producing omega-3 oil for key markets including aquafeed and human nutrition," said Kristi Snell, Ph.D., Chief Science Officer of Yield10 Bioscience. "In 2024, we plan to focus on executing our development program, building seed inventory in anticipation of commercial scale planting, and engaging with potential commercial partners to enable commercial sale of omega-3 oil and meal in target markets. Use of omega-3 oil in target markets may still be subject to regulation from other regulatory authorities in target geographies."

In 2023 Yield10 submitted two Requests for Regulatory Status Review ("RSR") to the BRS under the SECURE Rule (see below). An RSR filed in July 2023 covers Camelina engineered to produce eicosapentaenoic acid ("EPA") where the engineered omega-3 Camelina produces oil containing approximately 16-20% EPA. An RSR filed in December 2023 covers producing both EPA and docosahexaenoic acid ("DHA") in which the engineered omega-3 Camelina produces oil containing approximately 10% EPA and 10% DHA, closely resembling the omega-3 EPA/DHA fatty acid profile of northern hemisphere fish oil. The responses from USDA-APHIS indicate that the agency does not consider the modified Camelina plants to be an increased plant pest risk as compared to unmodified Camelina and are therefore not subject to regulation under 7 CFR part 340 regulations.
