BOSTON, April 12, 2023—GreenLight Biosciences (Nasdaq: GRNA), a public benefit corporation striving to deliver on the full potential of RNA to address some of the world’s toughest problems in human health and agriculture, today released its inaugural Sustainability Report.
The report contains the company’s sustainability roadmap and includes sustainability updates on its business areas—from developing new tools for farmers that are designed to be targeted, effective, and environmentally responsible to vaccine candidates and potential therapies to improve global health outcomes. The report highlights seven agriculture products that could reach the market by 2026, subject to applicable regulatory approvals, and three drug development candidates in the human health portfolio.
“At GreenLight, we believe RNA can play a crucial role in protecting people, plants, and our planet,” said CEO Andrey Zarur, “and we are committed more than ever to advancing innovation for a sustainable future.”
As a public benefit corporation, GreenLight is sharing its business strategy and how it can impact food security, biodiversity, health, and climate in its 2022 Sustainability Report. “We believe our products in development could be a change of paradigm in crop protection, where better food productivity is possible while respecting the environment,” said Marta Ortega-Valle, Chief Strategy & Sustainability Officer. “We are on a mission to apply our RNA platform and capabilities to develop cost-effective products for diseases prevalent in low- and middle-income countries, foster partnerships that improve pandemic response and enhance global vaccine accessibility.”
GreenLight is collecting, reporting, and disclosing sustainability data in accordance with international standards. “We have begun tracking key performance indicators that relate to our public-benefit charter and align with our mission to support the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. We are structured and governed to focus not only on our shareholders, but also on our community, employees, partners, and society,” she said.
GreenLight will regularly assess the quality of its sustainability data, focusing on continuous improvements and meeting the expectations of its stakeholders.

BOSTON, March 7, 2023 —GreenLight Biosciences (Nasdaq: GRNA), a public benefit corporation striving to deliver on the full potential of RNA to address some of the world’s toughest problems in human health and agriculture, will today outline its pipeline strategy and R&D progress for dsRNA based crop protection and plant delivery innovations focused on addressing food security with innovative and sustainable solutions during its Plant Health R&D Day being held today, March 7th, 2023 at 10:30 a.m. ET in Research Triangle, North Carolina.
“GreenLight is taking an innovative approach to advancing novel double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) solutions for numerous agricultural applications with advantages in speed of discovery/development, cost, quality and delivery. We have advanced our company’s portfolio strategy, target product profiles, and delivery capability all to meet the global challenges we face in the quest to grow food sustainably.” said Andrey Zarur, CEO of GreenLight Biosciences. “We have done this all with an eye on expanding potential addressable markets for our product portfolio and a focus on the potential benefits that our sustainable technologies could have on society.”
Sustainable innovations that address emerging resistance, food security, and agricultural impacts on biodiversity
As a leader in RNA innovation for agriculture, the Company is building on its existing rapid design, development and iteration capabilities for dsRNA by expanding product applications and delivery capabilities. The technological progress to be shared in today’s showcase enables GreenLight Biosciences to work towards unlocking access to the broader global insecticides and fungicides market worth $39B1,2, and the global herbicides market valued at $35.72B3.
“Farmers need products that appropriately solve the challenges they face in-field, all while helping to improve the overall sustainability of agriculture,” said Mark Singleton, Chief Commercial Officer and General Manager of Plant Health. “GreenLight Biosciences is fully committed to delivering products that address some of the major challenges faced by farmers, such as increased pest resistance, tightening regulatory environments, and demands by consumers to reduce chemical loads in foods. We expect that our rapid dsRNA development and production capabilities, coupled with novel delivery technologies, will enable us to develop sustainable solutions across all crop inputs segments and help reduce agricultural impact on biodiversity.”
Plant Health Strategy & Portfolio Updates
Today, at GreenLight’s R&D Showcase, the Company will outline a long-term strategy to progress its Plant Health portfolio and highlight progress in its R&D pipeline that it anticipates will help farmers expand their suite of tools to preserve yield potential as threats from insects, disease, and weeds increase, including:

● GreenLight Biosciences and Queensland University of Technology (QUT) partner to create a solution for fall armyworm
● Fall armyworm is one of the most destructive insect pests on the planet, causing more than US$2 billion in annual crop loss worldwide
● The Australian government has been searching for a more environmentally-friendly solution to fall armyworm and is supporting the partnership with a AUD$400,000 grant
BOSTON, MA, and BRISBANE, Australia, October 5, 2022—Researchers from Boston’s GreenLight Biosciences and the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in Brisbane, Australia, have announced an agreement to develop a solution to fall armyworm, which causes more than US$2 billion in annual global crop loss.
The partnership includes an Australian government grant to QUT of more than AUD$400,000 from the Australian Research Council. It brings together the teams of two preeminent researchers, Dr. Julia Bally and Professor Peter Waterhouse from the QUT Centre for Agriculture and the Bioeconomy, and GreenLight’s Plant Health research and development team.
The partnership aims to develop a solution for fall armyworm, a pest of national priority in Australia. It is also a point of emphasis that the project delivers environmentally-friendly crop protection tools against fall armyworm.
GreenLight’s plant health division is working on producing RNA-based solutions for a variety of fungi and insects that cause massive food loss and crop damage annually. In lab tests and field trials, GreenLight’s RNA-based solutions leave low or no residues.
Dr. Bally said previous collaboration on fall armyworm with GreenLight had been important to securing the grant from the Australian Research Council this year.
“We are excited to work with GreenLight Biosciences on this solution to armyworm,” she said. “We believe furthering our partnership will generate comprehensive new technologies to fight against one of the most damaging global crop pests and greatly improve Australian agritech capacity and strengthen international collaborations.”
GreenLight’s Vice President of Plant Health R&D Ron Flannagan said: “Fall armyworm has recently invaded Australia and devastates many crops, including sorghum and cotton. Our RNA platform allows us to develop solutions faster and more efficiently than was previously possible. So we are delighted to partner with QUT to accelerate our work targeting the fall armyworm with a sustainable solution.”
The project will begin with lab studies and advance to greenhouse and field trials.
“We believe this research will provide significant benefits, such as added security for Australia’s most important agricultural crops and regions and global food production,” Dr. Bally said.
