Boosted Potato.

Better Varieties. 
True Potato Seed.

Ohalo's Boosted Breeding makes hybrid breeding and uniform true seed possible for the first time ever in potato. Rather than replant tubers from prior harvests, farmers can directly sow true seed and benefit from varieties with unprecedented agronomic performance with Ohalo's Boosted Potato.

As the world's third largest source of calories, unlocking accelerated breeding outcomes, higher-yields, disease resistance, improved nutrition, decreased pesticide use, and true seed in potato will benefit for farmers around the world, from smallholder table potato producers to large-scale processing potato growers,

Boosted Potato varieties, offered as true potato seed,
deliver value throughout the potato supply chain.

Farmers

Higher yields, disease resistance, and offered for the first time ever as true seed, Boosted Potato significantly improves revenue while reducing the costs, time, and labor associated with planting.

Packer-shippers

Without the traditional bulk up period for seed potatoes, new varieties are deployed much faster, enabling supply chain flexibility to respond to consumer demad.

Processors

Accelerated product development delivers climate-resilient potato varieties, ensuring a steady supply to their operations around the world, with a smaller environmental footprint

Retailers

Higher yields, lower operating costs, and more reliable production quality translates into a more reliable and lower-cost supply chain, all while reducing the environmental footprint of potato farming.

Consumers

Vastly improved cultivation processes deliver a higher quality, year-round global potato supply, grown in a way that aligns with their desire to leave the planet better than they found it

Value-Added Traits

Value-Added Traits are distinct traits that can be quickly integrated into Boosted or standard potato varieties, delivering transformative benefits across the supply chain.

The potato industry faces a significant issue with cold-induced sweetening (CIS) - an enzymatic process triggers sugar accumulation during cold storage of potatoes.

"Sweetened potatoes" develop a dark brown color when fried and produce excess acrylamide, a potential health hazard, making CIS a $10B+ problem for the chip and fry industries.

Ohalo’s CISR Trait eliminates sugar accumulation during cold storage, unlocking supply chain value.  CISR can be integrated quicjkly into any commercial variety.
