Moolec’s Technology

We introduce animal genes in the plants’ genome to create ingredients that enhance organoleptic properties and nutrition to the food we all love.

Our technology positively impacts the environmental footprint of food production and strengthens food security.

Plants as bioreactors

We use plants as small factories without extra energy leveraging in photosynthesis. Moolec develops ingredients that contain a mix of plant and animal proteins as a one-stop-shop solution.

Self-same value chain

We use traditional farming to achieve volume, productivity, and low costs. Moolec recovers both plant and animal protein together through traditional downstream processes.

"We are proud to be a company that uses genetic modification for good purposes"

Stewardship MindsetWe promote careful and responsible management throughout our value chain

In Moolec, we are truly believers in doing, taking action, and making things happen the right way. Stewardship mindset, at all its levels and throughout all our operations, and all along our value chain, is considered fundamental.

Transparency, traceability and responsible management are promoted from lab to field so we can provide added value to our stakeholders and customers.

We are members of Excellence Through Stewardship (ETS), a program offered by the Global Stewardship Group, that promotes the adoption of product stewardship programs and quality management systems for the full life cycle of agricultural biotechnology products.

stewardship

Specifically for our field operations, our commitment lies in upholding regulatory standards, fostering identity preservation for our GM crops, maintaining technological quality and partnering with the best organizations to be up-to-date with the best available practices. For this, at Moolec we promote different initiatives:

Identity Preservation Program (IPP)
Through rigorous safety & quality assurance measures, we corroborate that our genetically modified products maintain their integrity from cultivation to consumption, fostering trust and compliance in the global marketplace.

Moolec’s Identity Preservation Program (IPP) ensures the complete segregation and traceability of the company’s genetically modified (GM) crops, maintaining their integrity from seed treatment to final product delivery. The Program has 3 continuous and consecutive stages (Seed Multiplication, Grain Processing and Seed Processing) and its key components are:

- Supervision and Traceability
- Stewardship and Environmental Responsibility
- Contracts and Compliance
- Quality Control and Testing


stewardship

Due to Moolec’s strategic partnership with shareholder Bioceres (NASDAQ: BIOX), we also have access to HB4® soybean technology and farmers. The combination of Molecular Farming technology with the HB4® platform will enable us to promote and include the best available farming practices for growers throughout our value chain.

Regulatory Compliance
We have already achieved breakthrough milestones regarding regulatory clearance in the US: According to USDA-APHIS, Moolec’s plants producing GLASO™ and Piggy Sooy™ pose no greater plant pest risk than non-genetically engineered plants according to regulation found at 7 CFR part.
