API Labs Inc. is creating a vertically integrated poppy industry in Canada. First, we develop poppies for the foods market. Then, once food poppy use has been established, API will develop a domestic plant production line for the relevant lines of poppy based pharmaceuticals.
The proposed project aims to experimentally establish the base agronomic factors for the cultivation of a low alkaloid variety of poppy as a food crop.
Poppy seeds are rich in protein, oil and fibre. Poppy seed flour offers unique advantages over other alternatives. It provides improved functionality in certain baked products. It is nut-free and allergen-free. It is also used as an ingredient in the cosmetics industry for its hydrating properties.
