Prairie Protein Innovations (PPI)
We screen pulse crops so farmers sell at a premium and food companies formulate without compromise.
About Us
PPI is a Saskatoon-based agri-food startup screening pulse raw materials upstream for protein quality and off-flavour risk — giving farmers the data to command premium prices and food companies the confidence to formulate without masking agents.
Our services
Screen
We assess incoming pulse lots for off-flavor activity and off-flavour risk before they enter your process.
Rank
We score and rank your raw material lots by protein quality and flavour performance — so you buy better.
Advise
We guide upstream processing adjustments that prevent off-note formation — no masking agents needed.
Why Upstream Matters
“Most off-flavour problems are created upstream — in the raw material, before anyone measures it. We measure it first!”
Ready to work together?
We are currently selecting partners for co-funded pilot projects across Saskatchewan, Canada-wise and Worldwide pulse value chain
