So With a Eden Director on the TT board and 3rd September as the Back to school date..any guesses as to when we will start to see promotion of the Nit lotions and potions and any from the other mythological consumer product Vertical ?.

Parked Dots and Wild Guesses.

The Guess here is that Eden have on going most likely Cedroz, but possibly Sipcam , related trials with Potatoes potentially related to PepsiCo/ Xinova synergy/colaboration. We have not been told anything about potatoes but Eden collect TweetLikes a plenty of Potato growers and their trade bodies. Lofty Powerscourt will have Potato related relationships and I'm not just talking about Nick Dibdens indulgences.

No Smoke and Mirrors here but possibly Smokey Bacon.

The Role of Terpenes as Protectors of the Potato Crop

1.4 Terpenes
Terpenoids constitute the largest and most widespread group of plant secondary
metabolites, and they display immense structural diversity. Terpenoids are formed from
linear arrangements of isoprene units, and are then rearranged and cyclised in order to form
the terpenoid carbon skeleton. Terpenoids are classified according to the number of
isoprene units from which they are constructed, and these classes include monoterpenes
(C10), sesquiterpenes (C15), diterpenes (C20), triterpenes (C30) and tetraterpenes (C40) to name
just a few (Stevens 1992). Terpene synthases, a large class of enzymes, are responsible for
the diversity observed in terpene carbon skeleton structures. The diversity in terpene
structure is also due to the fact that some terpene synthases produce multiple products
(Degenhardt, Köllner et al. 2009). Investigation into terpene synthases has been an active
area of plant metabolic engineering research in recent years due to the fact that the vast
diversity of terpenes may be exploited for biotechnological purposes (Singh and Sharma
2015). These compounds have an array of interesting properties, which may be exploited
for medicinal and agrochemical purposes, as well as for flavouring and in cosmetics. As the
field of synthetic biology develops, terpenes may be interesting and useful compounds to
investigate and exploit, due to their high level of diversity and the wide array of industries to
which they may be applied.

Terpenes have been identified in this study as being associated with potato crop losses in a
variety of different manners. The compound identified as a ‘hatching factor’ for Potato Cyst
Nematodes, which stimulates nematodes to hatch in the presence of the host plant, is a
triterpenoid produced by potatoes. Understanding of the ecological role and biosynthesis
of this triterpenoid will shed light on the reason for the production of this ‘hatching factor’
by the potato, and may also be critical in identifying solutions to the problem of Potato Cyst
Nematode infection.

5 Conclusions
This study has investigated two problems facing potato growers: Potato Cyst Nematode as a
pathogen of the potato crop, and the problem of sprouting inhibition whilst the potato crop is
in storage. Whilst the study has been relatively broad in scope, several key points have been
highlighted, which may be key to improving potato crop productivity, both with regards to
mitigating against pathogenic factors, and preventing losses in storage.

The role of terpenes, both as products of the potato, and as compounds used to protect the
potato, have been discussed throughout the study, and the conclusions drawn support the
statements made by Singh and Sharma (2015) suggesting that the vast array of terpenes may be
exploited for their biotechnological purposes. Furthermore, a deeper understanding of the
ecological role of terpenes produced by potato and other plants may result in highly specific
applications and uses for such metabolites.

Maybe not smoke and mirrors then, but there is no clarity with Eden, no expectation, poor visibility, broken promises, lack of market progress reports e.g. Sipcam evaluation of Sustaine and so the market cannot buy what it doesn't see and the market cannot see if it is not presented to them.

However, as I said in an earlier post, I'll bet the forthcoming options possibilities miraculously coincide with improvement on all of the above.

[supersonico] 22/7/2019 10:49

Investing,

Still not clear why your describing my commentary as 'smoke and Mirrors' I'm stating the obvious and have done now for a couple of years and as I have always said it's All Guesses all the Time.

Super

Eden's ongoing and parallel delays, Bayer and TT et al.

Is Eden being deliberately so as the options are soon to be in play in terms of the 45 average days and therefore are they 'lining up' their information feed to ensure the options execute?

If so that is totally wrong. If there is information to come out, especially price sensitive information, then it must come out as soon as it is available.

If they do hit their options and news flow is strong in August which is highly unusual for a Plc with the 'City' being on holiday, you can't help but be suspicious. It just doesn't sit well.

My 'Smoke and Mirrors' ..not sure what you mean?

[investingisatrickygame] 22/7/2019 09:05

Far too many "maybe's", ongoing delays and your smoke and mirrors with Eden.

More transparency, more information feed and a much greater appreciation and consideration for shareholders and the recognition of fair value in today's share price.

If they can't or won't do that, bring in someone who understands that need and will focus to deliver the same!

[supersonico] 21/7/2019 23:36

Maybe in the Fall.

[investingisatrickygame] 21/7/2019 19:12

Sounds like a communique due from Eden then Super

Mevalone


Terp'Innov


Cap-tene


Anticipated label extensions TRIGEMOL / EUGETI / CAGENOLETA potentially from either Sumiagro and/or Sipcam chiming with the Seipro article released by Antione Meyer of Sumiagro.

'Among the other novelties expected, a biocontrol fungicide based on microencapsulated terpenes for the fight against pome fruit conservation diseases. The biocontrol insecticide Oikos will benefit from a new formulation'.

To relieve the boredom here is a video of a drone spraying vines (it shows how bored I am with Eden if watching a drone relieved my boredom) :

"A tech startup in Iowa became the first legally authorized company to fly drones for aerial application of agrichemicals in the state of Iowa, reported Crop Life.

“Our drone technology had been ready for a few months; we just needed the regulatory landscape to get sorted out,” Rantizo CEO, Michael Ott explained. “Building the technology is the easy part,” he continued.

Record rainfall this spring has decimated the Midwest, including many parts of Iowa.

Rantizo, which developed an easy-to-use drone spraying platform, could soon hit the fields spraying fungicide over crops to ensure parasitic fungi does not spread in the unusual wet conditions."

Northwick

I did'nt mean to sound optimistic.

[investingisatrickygame] 19/7/2019 13:51

To be fair, why wouldn't you be disenchanted?!

Eden thus far as measured by price and over time (many years) has been an absolute car crash. There is nothing the BoD can say to justify the share price performance. There is no benchmark to align to. Eden is the only biopesticide company listed in London.


The only measure is what is Eden worth today based on commercial success, three year forward revenues, IP and whatever that is, start communicating more clearly and more aggressively to deliver fair and par value

[northwick] 19/7/2019 10:12

SuperYou are indeed expecting a lot from and out of Eden, aren't you???Bod have said plant protection is their main priority-Look at SLN.L - up 250% since its Proactive presentation, which was on the same day as Eden did.

[supersonico] 19/7/2019 09:38

End of the school year so now starts the countdown to the New school year and we find out if Eden with their seat on the TT board so fully informed.. are going to keep us informed on all the juicy details or are those behind them both holding everything in parallel going to leave Eden having to make the dog ate my homework excuses for not delivering ..again.

A Take back control deal with the US post Brexit means everything is on the table including one would presume quite literally... chlorpyrifos.

EPA’s Wheeler Keeps Brain-Damaging Pesticide Legal for Use on Foods Kids Eat

The Eastman/Eden Cedroz country approval dampening policy appears to be working well.

Perhaps the RNS's all fell between the cushions of the Shorecap sofa. So easily done especially with those nice Swedish Sofas designed by New York based Manny Pula
