BENSON HILL
Case Study: Ultra High Protein
(UHP) Soybean Ingredient
~6-8 Year Head Start
CropOS® Accelerated Creation of UHP Varieties
1.
UHP opportunity identified through
big data fusion and CropOSⓇ:
Phenotypic, Soil Health, Microbiome
2.
CropOS® evaluated 970 data
layers, across 20 years of climate
data, and in >1.4M fields, to
identify the best environments for
protein production
Benson Hill's proprietary soybean delivers significantly higher
protein content compared to industry standard commodity soybeans
Source: Internal estimates based on Benson Hill LCA on UHP Soybean, Impossible Foods LCA, and
Barclay's Global Food Report, 'I Can't Believe It's Not Meat' (2019). (1) Compared to conventional soy protein concentrate.
(2) Estimated impact of UHP enabling achievement of forecasted demand for plant-based meats, compared to beef.
