Food shortages…

harvesting the sun

Climate change…
Dwindling oil reserves…
Carbon tax and cap and trade policies...
Water limitations and spiralling population growth.

These are issues that make the news every day.


To some these issues appear like insurmountable problems. To PPI, they are unparalleled opportunities. The alignment of these issues represents a rare opportunity for stronger, more resilient, more productive and more adaptable food and non-food crops to play a pivotal role in helping build a sustainable future for the world.   

Enhancing crops for up to double-digit gains in yield, expanding the areas where agriculture can thrive through the development of drought-resistant species and developing existing plant species as a more efficient source of non-food biomass for ethanol, butanol and bio-diesel and solid fuel is the most direct path to a sustainable future.  

PPI’s technologies address two critical needs for global survival;  Increased global food supply and increased raw material for renewable fuels.
