About us
2002
Okome, established in 2002, addresses global challenges like population growth and water scarcity through genetically modified rice designed for extreme environmental conditions caused by climate change. 
2029
In 2029, Okome addressed climate challenges threatening rice production by introducing the "Desert Variant," a genetically modified rice resilient to arid conditions with reduced water requirements. Despite its potential, widespread adoption faced limitations in terms of cost and time compared to traditional rice farming. The innovation marked a shift from staple to luxury food, showcasing Okome's ability to leverage climate change for advantage. This marked the beginning of Okome's mission to shape the future of rice production and ensure food security in a changing world through bold and innovative approaches.

2054
After the success of the "Desert Variant" in 2029, Okome faced a new challenge in 2050, the global threat of permafrost thaw endangering food production.
Undeterred, Okome responded urgently with the permafrost variant, a genetically modified rice designed for previously frozen soils. Launched in 2054, this innovation demonstrated Okome's commitment to adapting rice to extreme climatic conditions. It highlighted the power of science to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges, making the "Permafrost Variant" the world's most sought-after rice variety. Okome continued to shape the future of rice, showcasing how science and innovation can provide concrete solutions to pressing challenges in a rapidly changing world.

2098
In 2098, facing the dire consequences of climate change, Okome takes a momentous step to address global concerns about rising sea levels threatening coastal areas and food security. This leads to the development of the groundbreaking "Marine Variant," a genetically modified rice designed to thrive in conditions of increasing water levels. Set for an official launch in December 2098, the "Marine Variant" stands as a revolutionary solution to sustain rice production in coastal regions at risk.
