Peterson Farms Seed and Equinom have entered into a long-term collaboration to produce identity-preserved seeds of ultra-high protein yellow peas. The Equinom yellow pea varieties will be the foundation of minimally processed pea-protein ingredients and used in food applications. Peterson Farms Seed will propagate the seeds with its network of seed producers to ultimately commercialize Equinom pea varieties. Growers will have access to closed-loop, take all contracts including pick up post-harvest on the farms. Growers will be paid market price plus bonuses for protein content.
