Benson Hill

Using AI, plant science and data analytics to improve food nutrition and sustainability in soy protein production.

Benson Hill is a seed breeding company that integrates plant science, data analytics and artificial intelligence to enhance the sustainability and efficacy of animal feed, food and oils for renewable biofuels.  

The company’s AI-driven CropOS® technology derives insight from more than 470 billion data points, enabling more precise breeding recommendations to unlock the genetic potential of soybeans and yellow pea. Its state-of-the-art Crop Accelerator™ facility enables it to evaluate and finalise its proprietary commercial varieties faster than its peers. 

Benson Hill’s flagship Ultra-High Protein (UHP) soybean variety with low anti-nutritional factors has been proven in trials to improve grower economics in poultry, pig and aquaculture operations, and therefore has the potential to increase value per acre for adopting growers.  

Having already boosted soy’s protein content, increased yields, and expanded maturity zones, Benson Hill is now focused on realising greater value by delivering better digestibility,  higher feed energy density and higher oil content.
