Transferring innovations in plant science and technology for sustainable agricultural solutions

PSI supports the implementation of existing solutions in genetics, plant biotechnology and Big Data to develop specialty crops and adapt them to end-user needs.

Mission

Plant Sciences Integrator (PSI) offers growers and industrial users improved varieties for “orphan” plant species. Our multi-disciplinary team designs and recommends customized solutions, and coordinates their implementation.

We keep abreast of the latest scientific and technological research in plant genetics.

Our customers are agricultural companies, research institutes and departments, and private and public players who want to put science at the service of sustainability, agricultural productivity, food safety and traceability in a global context marked by climate change and the risk of erosion of plant biodiversity.

Genesis & Vision

PSI draws on decades of experience and international collaborations to offer a rigorous and pragmatic integrated approach to the needs of the plant industry. Within Alpha Agriculture Technologies, PSI combines strategic vision, biological expertisetechnological and networks of service partners.

At PSI, we are convinced that science can transform agricultural value and supply chains, particularly those of orphan speciesWe believe that science can transform agricultural value and supply chains, particularly for orphan species, which are little or not considered by the seed industry, but which are sources of differentiation and added value for many sectors (food, health, construction, flavors and fragrances, energy).



Services

PSI supports its customers – SMEs, ETIs and major groups – in defining their plant innovation needs andoutsourcing cutting-edge scientific skills.

It develops and coordinates applied research programs in fields such as food, cosmetics and health, with a particular focus on specialty perennial plants.

Thanks to a collaborative, results-oriented approach, PSI converts well-established scientific advances on major species into concrete, innovative solutions tailored to the specific needs of high-value-added specialties, both upstream and downstream of the plant industry.

PSI provides companies and institutions with a portfolio of services structured around complementary technological pillars.

Our approach

A wide range of complementary expertise

Our strength lies in the complementary nature of our expertise. By bringing together plant biotechnology,precision agriculture,agronomy and genetics, we build bridges between disciplines to offer integrated solutions.

This multi-disciplinary approach enables us to support the development of new varieties adapted to climatic constraints, soil regeneration and the safeguarding of agricultural sectors linked to orphan species, thus helping to preserve plant diversity and strengthen the resilience of quality agricultural production.

 

A holistic approach

We take a holistic approach to each project, integrating all the dimensions that influence the performance and sustainability of agricultural systems. From plant genetics to soil management, fromenvironmental analysis to mastering AI and Big Data, we consider the interactions between science, cultivation practices and socio-economic needs.

This global vision enables us to propose coherent solutions, adapted to local realities, and capable of simultaneously meeting the challenges of productivity, traceability and quality.

 

Mastering AI and Big Data

Artificial intelligence and Big Data are at the heart of our approach. By harnessing the power of available genomic, agronomic and environmental data analysis, we can more quickly identify the parameters that are essential for decision-making.

Our mastery of digital tools enables us to transform the complexity of life sciences into concrete, predictive solutions tailored to our customers’ needs.

 

Our values

Scientific excellence

We place scientific rigor and innovation at the heart of our actions. Each project is based on proven methods, constant monitoring and collaboration with top-level research partners, to guarantee reliable solutions that meet the challenges of agriculture, quality and technology.

Sustainability and the long term

Our solutions are part of a sustainable and responsible vision. By promoting crop resilience, preserving natural resources and improving the quality of orphan plant species, we contribute to the sustainability of agricultural sectors in a context of environmental change.
