Nuseed’s closed loop productions and commitment to Excellence Through Stewardship (ETS) protects the value of Nuseed Omega-3 Canola.
Nuseed is a member of Excellence Through Stewardship (ETS) and has achieved ETS certification under the extensive ETS protocols.
ETS is a global non-profit organization that promotes the universal adoption of product stewardship programs and quality management systems for the full life cycle of agricultural technology products. The ETS Stewardship Audit Process involves independent third-party audits of operations to verify that stewardship programs and quality management systems are in place.
Nuseed Omega-3 Canola is traced through the identity preserved system with set checkpoints with lot number, seal number, field and bin GPS and sample testing for quality, genetics and fatty acids at every point of transition from field to receiver. This protects the value of Nuseed Omega-3 Canola that our Aquaterra (for aquafeed markets) and Nutriterra (for human nutrition) are derived from.
ETS certification aligns with our business commitments to stewardship and is a responsible way to manage biotech plant products through their life cycle, discovery, and development through to commercialization.
ETS been honed over years to provide members focus on what is important, and it’s always improving. It provides a platform for adopting tried-and-true stewardship best management practices. It’s important to Nuseed because it ensures the stewarded production of our novel oils, helps us limit liability, and positions us a professional partner in our collaborations with other seed companies who are also ETS members. Furthermore, ETS certification helps strengthen public trust.
The process validates the qualities we promise to our end-use customers, so they can assure their own customers that they’re getting a quality product. Isolation and stewardship prevent other traits from getting into our product and vice-versa.
