To announce that you will be raising money to remain a going concern AND that your NOMAD has resigned is never good for the share price.

The expansion of the use of PHC279 into different varieties of Rust in other plants is encouraging. It may be a case of "jam tomorrow" but all PHC investors should know this is a 'slow and steady' market where regulatory approval takes time as does acceptance by farmers. Provided that in-field data from the rollout of PHC279 into soybean [where it is targetting Asian Soybean Rust] continues to impress, I would expect take up to be quicker in other plant species.

When announcing the PHC949 US application, the company said:

"To date, a number of field trials conducted of PHC949 in the United States have demonstrated ‘outstanding’ control of nematodes, the company outlined. For example, in peppers, PHC949 increased marketable yield by about 3,265 lbs/acre, worth an extra $2,070/acre, it reported.

The company further highlighted that several field trials are also underway to demonstrate the value of the novel PHC949 peptide in soybeans as well as in other crops in the US and Brazil.

The Company said it expects global sales of PHC949 to reach into the ‘tens of millions of dollars’ over the long-term and to become a significant value driver for the Company."

2 comments: (a) I had been hoping for news on the US application by now, and (b), it might be reasonable to expect the incoming Lula administration to be more welcoming to new, greener fungicides and nematicides.

A muted market response as usual...

I highly recommend a Chromebook [if you are not allergic to Google]. Built in virus protect; foolproof but underpowered, so no good for games but fine for YouTube etc. They tend to have very little storage but are cheap as chips... this would probably suit your needs:

15" touchscreen; what I would buy for £207

Do you want a laptop or a pc [or both]?

My 'pc' is an iMac; at about £1200 they are not cheap but the last couple I have had both lasted around 10 years. Chromebooks are cheap, cheerful and fairly secure if you want a cheap laptop that will last a few years; the ASUS one I have at the moment was £200 a couple of years ago.

You could say that it is thanks to Brexit Brilliance that this Fishing Bonanza has been delivered.

Like the well staffed and resourced NHS where ministers give out advice like please do not undertake risky behaviour (like driving, playing sport or going to the pub).

Another for Trek's Xmas card list; YGEN trading at just under 2p raises £5m at 0.3p.

Seems to be a quality PR company involved.

Excellent thread; aged well.

And how much gold do Alba have on hand to sell at spot prices?

'Perovskite/silicon tandem solar cell advance breaks efficiency record'

https://newatlas.com/energy/perovskite-silicon-tandem-solar-cell-efficiency-record-32-5-percent/

If you have panels on your roof at home, they will probably struggle to get over 15% efficiency. A cell with 32.5% efficiency would probably give around 25% in real life, which would be a massive improvement on what is currently available. Solar and a home battery is the future. Ideally you have enough space to put a small array in the garden, but that is a whole different argument.

There is no need for sarcasm; we all need to offer sacrifices to The Dear Leader (praise be his name) for his dedication to carefully crafting massive tax losses for shareholders.

When you manage to insult Republicans when making an anti Royal TV series, you have completely xxxxed up.

kenny,

What will the Yanks have to say when they have to start speeding up, abandoning their own coastline? And paying to dismantle what is there [like the existing oil and chemical industrial infrastructure] before it is lost in an uncontrolled manner to the sea?

kenny,

Some of the Dutch farmers are the most polluting in the world, especially their intensive porcine producers. The ammonia and nitrogen pollution is damaging fresh water supplies, river and drainage systems and interfering with salt water ecosystems. Farms will only be closed when the farmer refuses to take measures to reduce pollution, and only farmers considered to be 'peak polluters' are being targetted.

Bear in mind that most of the Netherlands is low-lying, and there is little the country can do in the face of sea level rises other than try and prevent it [by measures such as stopping harmful polluters] or building higher flood defences. The problem with flood defences is that they are expensive and only work until they do not; once the land is flooded, the salt damage ruins their agricultural potential. What options do they have?

Troajan mentioned Eaststar Resources yesterday. They tweeted yesterday about 'Kazakhstan’s will to develop its #mining & exploration industry is evident in its strategic raw materials partnership with @EU_Commission' and referenced this press release:

https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/IP_22_6585

Which in turn referenced this policy document: "Critical Raw Materials Resilience: Charting a Path towards greater Security and Sustainability' which is an interesting read:

Copper does not feature...

The current Covid outbreak in China is going to negatively impact on the production of precursor chemicals used in making pharmaceutical drugs, as well as significantly increasing demand for some medicines in China. This is likely to have an impact on worldwide supplies next year. I have read suggestions that people who are on long term medication should consider stocking up.

Not a problem for me / my family, but if you are on long term medication it is something to be aware of... Probing questions of your local pharmacy when you collect medication should keep you up to date about potential shortages. There have been too many changes in GOV recently to expect them to have competent people in post who understand the intricacies of their jobs; they are just worried about keeping the gravy flowing in 2024 to consider the oncoming supply side shocks.
