Brownseed Genetics, LLC is a third-generation seed genetics company started in 1911. We are a value-added trait licensing company using a collaborative distribution network. Main breeding focuses are E+® corn 90 Day – 115 Day Maturity, GMO & Non-GMO value-added hybrids. Targeted value traits include oil and protein using classical and MAS breeding techniques.
We seek to form one unified voice for carbon capture pipelines, ethanol producers, landowners, farmers, construction trade workers and citizens that embrace this new energy future for America. Working together, this alliance will strengthen America’s agricultural economy, ensure a future marketplace for American produced liquid fuel and improve the environment for all.
GIC Group (www.gicgroup.com) , a long-standing international agribusiness company specializing in financial services, has developed a suite of new futures contracts—CPC (commodity plus carbon) to ensure premiums, based on emission reduction practices on farm. Our pilots confirm Purdue U. survey findings that farm participation rates in direct carbon payment programs remain under 3% of the total number of growers and confirm 80% positive response rates to CPC. Our first roll-out is CPC corn, offering lower carbon footprints and Scope 3 opportunities for the ethanol industry. Listing in commodity exchanges coming soon.
