Performance Plants Inc. is privately held and governed by an eight member Board of Directors which adheres to governance best practices. Our goal is to be the leading company that is responsibly increasing crop productivity to provide for the food and biofuel needs of the world.

We believe biotechnology is the best solution to address very large global issues such as depletion of water reserves, feeding a growing world and adoption of biofuels.

PPI’s low impact, weatherproofed biofuel crops will provide farmers with a profitable choice to grow biofuel crops on the millions of acres of low productivity farmland. Biofuel crops have the potential to reinvigorate rural economies without displacing the efficient food and feed production on the best farmland.

As a leader of the “gene revolution”, PPI is pleased that we are the first biotech company to grant the humanitarian use of drought-tolerant technology (YPTT®) in partnership with Africa Harvest Biotech Foundation International. For sustenance farmers in Africa, YPTTreg;reg;reg;reg; will improve yields of white maize, their most important staple food crop.
