vistive® gold soybeans
Vistive® Gold soybeans combine breeding and biotechnology to provide soybean oilwith mono-unsaturated fat levels similar to olive oil and the low saturate fat content of canola oil, which would allow the food industry to cost-effectively eliminate trans fats and significantly lower saturated fat content in food products. Vistive® Gold soybeans also significantly improve frying stability of the oil while maintaining the flavor and economics of soybean oil. Vistive® Gold would allow farmers to help meet the growing demand for healthier oils with a domestically produced soybean-based option.
