Rumafeed

RumaFeed’s produce reduces environmental impact, arable land waste, produce-quality degradation during handling and storage, health risks to consumers, and production costs.

Using advanced genetic editing, RumaFeed silenced genes responsible for glycoalkaloids synthesis in potato haulm and tubers, making Solanaceae leaves a viable feed source.

Genetic engineering of potatoes was introduced in the 1990s. Some genetically modified potato varieties have been approved by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for nearly a decade.
