Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract]
Risks and uncertainties	Risks and uncertainties In addition to the risks inherent in the Company’s industry and its stage of commercialization, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic introduces a novel risk that is difficult to assess or predict. To date, the Company’s operations have not been adversely affected by the pandemic, although the Company has made modifications to its biosecurity procedures and its farm sites to adapt to local requirements and to provide a safe work environment. The Company continues to monitor the broader environment for potential impacts to its commercial plans, including those in the supply chain and the transportation industry. Concentration of credit risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. This risk is minimized by the Company’s policy of investing in financial instruments with short-term maturities issued by highly rated financial institutions. The Company’s cash balances may at times exceed insurance limitations. The Company holds cash balances in bank accounts located in Canada to fund its local operations. These amounts are subject to foreign currency exchange risk, which is mitigated by the Company’s policy to limit the balances held in these accounts. Balances in Canadian bank accounts totaled $240 thousand at March 31, 2020.
