Joint venture launches for pulses


 Seed company FP Genetics has made a funding agreement with J4 Agri-Science, a Canadian research and development company specializing in pulse and oilseed crops. 

This agreement establishes long-term stable funding to support J4’s crop development programs, with a focus on peas, lentils, flax, and faba beans. 

Under the terms of the agreement, FP Genetics will provide ongoing financial support to J4 Agri-Science’s breeding and development efforts in exchange for priority access to new varieties emphasizing traits that directly benefit farmers—such as improved yield stability, herbicide tolerance, disease resistance, stress tolerance, and end-use quality.
