SEEDING THE FUTURE
FARMily integrates genomics, aerospace breeding, and AIoT to transform soybean cultivation. We develop stress-resilient, non-transgenic soybeans and low-carbon biofertilizers that restore soil health and boost productivity on marginal lands, reducing dependence on imported soybeans.
Founded by Professor Hon-Ming Lam and his team, FARMily Biotechnology Company Limited builds on decades of soybean research and collaboration networks. The team pioneered genomic screening, marker-assisted breeding, and aerospace breeding to develop next-generation soybean varieties, aiming to enhance its international standing in soybean germplasm resources. As an R&D company, FARMily will provide scientific solutions across seed, environment, food, and nutrition.
Solutions
Seed
• Developing and commercializing stress-resilient, nutritionally enhanced soybean cultivars adapted to different cultivation areas.
Environment
• Developing and commercializing low-carbon biofertilizers as an environmental solution.
• Leveraging diverse soybean-related cropping systems and AIoT technology to promote sustainable agriculture, carbon reduction, and soil health.
Food
• Science-based development of soybean-related foods for improved nutrition.
• Discovery, validation, and production of health-promoting functional ingredients from soybeans.
• Primary targets: health-conscious silver-haired consumers and older adults with special dietary needs.
