ARVEGENIX is developing and genetically improving Field Pennycress as an oilseed crop that will produce high quality oil for industrial and renewable fuels, along with meal for nutritious livestock feed.  Pennycress is a winter crop grown between corn and soybeans when land is idle, therefore providing growers with a revenue generating cover crop.
