RE: RE: RE: BU.TO vs BXI.V

Agreed. I believe BXI is producing aquaculture protein supplement, for the most part, while Burcon from the start has been pursuing the beverage and food additives, a much higher value product.

Having said that, the farmed fish industry is huge and growing, and they desperately need new sources of protein. This is a large market and big profits can go to the low cost producer. On that point, I have no idea where Burcon and Bioexx compare.
